This Year's Garden: Habitat Dance with a Red Snake
The purpose of this garden is to focus on a red-headed snake, the San Francisco (peninsula) Garter Snake, which iis on the endangered species list. San Mateo COunty is the habitate of this snake. The colors of this snake - red, turquoise, and black - inspired the material sections of this garden. I want to bring attention to the beauty of this snake as it represents a threatened habitat with all its diversity and importance. The snake feeds in the wetlands and suns itself upland. This garden points out that both we and the garter snake depend on our environment for survival. This garden is about gardening for the future to protect our habitat, teaching children about food sources, having space for mediation and social space, increasing awareness of native plants, and indeed being inspired by nature to design features that help maintain and respect the natural environment and our place in it.
See you there!-Keeyla
