How about using the half of that open space closest to 1st Street as needed parking for Old Town. I've heard of a parking lot possibility; it could be a good plan. But how about devoting the half of the area nearest the bay to an open green space, like Halvorsen Park, and with the boardwalk continuing from G Street toward the Humboldt State University Aquatics Center and the Adorni Center buildings.
That large, open waterfront area between G and I streets provides a great view of the harbor on the bay. This openness is important for Eureka and has an immense value for residents and visitors alike. Let's hope our waterfront there doesn't get junked up again.

One Canopy is a strategy that supports our Strategic Plan and Official Plan through actions aiming to increase tree planting efforts across the community using a mix of public and private land to plant at least 3.6 million trees, covering an area of approximately 1,492 hectares, to achieve 40 per cent tree canopy cover by 2070.
How the strategy works
The strategy will be implemented in 2023 starting with the development of a five-year implementation plan including prioritized recommendations and future milestones to help us monitor our progress.
Every five years, as we implement the actions, we will evaluate our progress and update the implementation as needed to successfully progress towards our canopy cover goal.

Circular walk around St Maurice's Pond. The pond is a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation with areas of reedbed, open water, mixed woodland, parkland, wildflower meadows, orchid meadows and orchard. Cumbernauld Living Landscape has a Wild Walk around the site encouraging the public to record wildlife in the area. great site for waterbirds, wildflowers, butterflies and dragonflies. Path is comprised mainly of loose gravel and is approx 1.8 metres wide for much of it's length, though it does narrow slightly in places. There is one steep uphill section on the anti-clockwise section, however taking the path clockwise eliminates this as the slope in that direction is almost imperceptible (though you still have to come down it!). there is a boardwalk section over the pond.

We are so happy with the end result! In addition, she helped correct the mayhem that another designer had implemented in our front yard. Simply by moving, removing and adding a few plants, she perfected the overall appearance and helped us achieve our landscape vision.

Michelle Langdon designed a common area for our complex in 2017. I’m writing this review now because all of the plants have grown in and are beautiful! We had very little plant material loss, I think that is likely because Michelle selected plants that she knew would grow well in that environment. Our tenants LOVE the design as well, each tenant now has a space for themselves and a common area that they use for entertaining. The putting green is super cool and adds a lot to the overall look, which I think is hard to do because often times the putting greens look tacky-tacky, but because of the design, it looks like an actual mini golf hole and the green pops out perfectly. There is no way I could have come up with the ideas Michelle produced, her creative eye was both functionally and aesthetically present at all phases of our design. She will be working on more of our properties. ~Carson Wise

Tip #2 for a tidy garden: Clean Edging!
Make sure your garden has a clean, orderly edge. This doesn’t necessarily mean installing plastic or metal edging or putting down patio bricks or blocks.
A simple edge can be made with a flat bladed shovel. Dig a small trench about 3-4 inches deep and and inch or two across. Then bring in your mulch and let it fill in on the garden side.
A curving edge is often more pleasing to the eye. I like to lay a hose down to help me visualize the line and then use spray paint to mark it in before I start digging.
If you’re going to install plastic or metal edging the steps are pretty much the same. Just add the additional steps of getting the edging into the trench, fitting the pieces together, cutting the extra edging off at the end, staking it all down, and filling the trench back in. So it’s a bit more work.
With edging you also need to make sure your trench is very vertical. If your edging isn’t put in straight or staked down properly it will rise out of the ground in a few years. The ground expands and contracts with every freeze and thaw so any physical barrier in the ground will come up eventually. Then it will likely be damaged by a lawn mower or trip you as you’re gardening.
This is why I prefer a simple trench edge – it may need the occasional touch up here or there but that is far less work than re-digging a trench, putting down a whole new section of edging, and trying to make it fit with the other pieces you didn’t replace. And a more natural edge is more pleasing to the eye, in my opinion.

In the bathrooms, our client had full creative license. Kerry worked with them to pull together the various elements. From feature tiles by Artedomus, to custom oak vanities, mirrors and large level-entry showers.
Our client’s interior designer designed the bathroom layouts and our team worked with her to turn the stunning design into a reality.
The final phase of the project was creating a bespoke entertainment area that is in keeping with the home. We worked alongside the owners to make the final design and landscaping decisions.
Our team look forward to completing the project in time for our clients to enjoy their home over the summer!

When installed properly, porcelain tiles can make a beautiful feature for a patio area. It’s actually the perfect time to be thinking about preparing your patio for summer, and at Stone & Surfaces Direct we’re about to tell you exactly how to do it.
No matter whether you are looking to create a brand new patio or refresh your existing one, here are some tips to help.
Start the planning process
Any DIY project requires planning because it’s not that simple just to jump straight into it. To achieve the perfect patio, it’s vital to start planning from scratch to avoid the risk of any unpleasant surprises once things are underway.
The plan you devise should be structured with enough detail so you can fully picture the end result you are striving to achieve.
A good plan should cover your budget, desired colour or effect of porcelain slabs and the sizes required, as well as who will be installing the patio.
Purchase the suitable materials
Now you have a plan in place, it’s time to purchase all of the materials the job requires. This will include adhesive, primer, base mix grout, and cleaner. Just be sure to purchase each in the relevant quantities so you can make a prompt start on your project.
Rest assured that porcelain paving tiles will all look identical in terms of markings and colour all because of their manufacturing process. Unlike natural stone, which often varies because of natural markings and colours, porcelain paving is manufactured with inkjet printing technology.
Mark the area out
Next, you’ll need to mark out the planned area of your patio on the ground using wooden pegs. Doing this will provide you with a guide for laying the porcelain tiles and allow you to see how much space will need to be used, which means you can be prepared for any potential problems before the paving has been installed.
Ensure there is a solid base and begin laying
To start paving, it is essential to ensure that the ground is completely flat, compact, and solid so that the bedding mortar can lay on top effectively.
The first porcelain slabs you lay must be fitted with precision if you want the rest of the tiles to follow in the same way. If there is one wrong move it could affect the appearance of the entire patio.
Grout the paving and let it dry
Once the paving is installed, you can decide whether or not you wish to grout the tiles. Porcelain paving is non-porous, therefore it doesn’t require grouting. However, if you wish to then we recommend purchasing a grout product specifically suited to porcelain paving.
It is important to allow the patio to dry fully before stepping on it because if not, this could result in wonky tiles. If you are installing your patio during the winter months, protect the paving with sheeting to prevent rain and frost from interfering with the drying process.
With over 25 years of experience distributing natural stone paving, porcelain paving, and aggregates worldwide; we are the people to help you achieve the perfect patio, garden, or home interior. Talk to one of our experienced stone professionals about your specific needs today.


The soil textures for non-arable land are used to help identify what type of pasture range site is present. They are not used in any calculation procedure. There are four non-arable soil textures: TXT1, TXT2, TXT3 and TXT4. TXT1 is the first texture of the first non-arable soil association. "CL" is the symbol for a clay loam textured soil and is TXT1.
TXT2 is the second non-arable soil texture. "L" is the symbol for Loam.
TXT3 is the first texture of the second non-arable soil association.
TXT4 is the second non-arable soil texture of the second non-arable soil association. On the sample sheet, there is only one soil association therefore the TXT3 and TXT4 areas are blank.
Note: Non-arable soil textures: TXT1 and TXT2 are used only for the first soil association. And TXT3 and TXT4 are used only for the second soil association.

Plymouth received a £6,000 Grow Wild award to develop its idea for a dynamic local project. Plymouth's City to Sea project was named as a runner-up for the Grow Wild England flagship site, after a voting campaign that saw a total of nearly 65,000 votes cast in 2014. The project also joined the network of 70 new Grow Wild community projects that were launched in spring 2016.
We've transformed North Cross roundabout into a wildflower haven. The preparation works included stone-burying and seeding which initially looked bare but the site was a riot of colours by June. We hand-seeded the wildflowers on Wednesday 8 April 2015 with the help of Plymouth Environmental Action. FotoNow filmed and photographed the process.
Native wildflowers were sown and provide a stunning array of colour to welcome visitors to the city including:
- Corn marigold
- Ox-eye daisy
- Red campion
- White campion
The wildflowers will also encourage native pollinators such as bees, hoverflies and butterflies to thrive.
We ran a seed collecting event on 27 August 2015 with the help of Plymouth Environmental Action and volunteers which was a great success.
You can find out more about the project on the Grow Wild website.

|Non-Tidal Wetland Restoration
For nearly 30 years, Ecological Restoration and Management, Inc. has helped to restore and create valuable and diverse non-tidal wetland habitats throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Great Lakes regions. Since 1983, ER&M has successfully planted, maintained, and enhanced over one hundred acres of these important ecosystems. To be successful in wetland restoration and creation requires far more skill than simply being able to read and follow a set of plans. Rarely do sites perform exactly as designed. The hydrologic conditions are often different than predicted, selected plant species aren’t suited to the post construction conditions, and the impact of local wildlife populations can be substantial. Whether the work involves the creation of emergent wetlands, scrub shrub wetlands, forested wetlands, or any combination of same, ER&M staff and crew have the experience and skills necessary for understanding the dynamics of these systems and tackling the obstacles they present.

Poured concrete edging is made with a machine that extrudes wet concrete thru a mold after which the installers apply a pattern, if applicable, and make control joints. Control joints are small grooves in the concrete where any cracking due to movement will occur and not be visible. Release agents are then applied, which are dyes giving the finished product the multiple tones to the coloring. Lastly a sealer is applied to protect the colors and provide more longevity.
- Poured concrete curbing gives your property an upscale look providing crisp definition between different materials.
- A wide variety of colors, patterns and styles make this a very versatile product in the landscape. Complimenting other materials such as patios or mulch is easily accomplished.
- Concrete curbing excels as an edging between lawns and beds, often eliminating the need for regular string trimming altogether.
- Sweeping curves can be made with concrete curbs for a softer feel or straight lines for a more contemporary style.
PRO LANDSCAPER TIP
Flat or Low Angle curbing is best for a mowing edge to minimize trimming required. A Higher Angle curb is more suitable if a 'raised bed' effect is desired.


The award-winning project was a collaboration between the Littoral Society, Princeton Hydro and key partners that involved implementing a variety of green infrastructure stormwater management projects in order to decrease the volume of runoff and associated pollutants flowing into and damaging Barnegat Bay.
The green infrastructure projects were designed to treat stormwater at its source while delivering environmental, social and economic benefits to the Bay. Completed projects include:
Conversion of standard, grassed detention basins into naturalized bio-retention basins, as exemplified by the Laurel Commons Carnation Circle Basin, which now serves as a paradigm for the cost-effective retrofitting of aged, traditional detention basins
At Toms River High School North, the installation of tree boxes,
At the Toms River Board of Education offices, the replacement of conventional paving with permeable pavement,
At multiple sites, the construction of rain gardens,
At Toms River High School North, the construction/installation of stormwater management Manufactured Treatment Devices (MTDs)
At the Toms River Community Medical Center (RWJ Barnabas Health), the construction of a bio-retention/infiltration basin
The entire Princeton Hydro team extends our warmest congratulations to Helen Henderson and all of the folks at American Littoral Society for winning this prestigious award! Princeton Hydro is proud to partner with this incredible organization and is grateful for the work they do to protect our beautiful coastline and save the bay!
American Littoral Society, Ocean County Soil Conservation District and Princeton Hydro recently held a Stormwater Projects in Action workshop. The workshop focused on a number of 319(h) funded projects designed by Princeton Hydro and implemented by American Littoral Society in the Long Swamp Creek/Lower Toms River sub-watersheds of Barnegat Bay. Those projects exemplified how green infrastructure techniques could be used to retrofit, upgrade and compliment standard stormwater management methods. This included the restoration of healthy soils and the construction/installation of bioretention basins, rain gardens, porous pavement, and sub-surface Manufactured Treatment Devices (MTDs).
A brochure detailing each of the projects and providing an in-depth look at the incredible work being done to save Barnegat Bay was distributed to event attendees. You can download your free copy here:


The Black Country Urban Forest is a millennium project headed by the Black Country Environmental Partnership, which aims to plant or bring into sustainable management 900 ha of woodland in the Black Country by the year 2000. This includes the planting of street and garden trees, planting new woodland and managing existing woodland. Funding of 4.2 million pounds for this project was received from the Millennium Commission in 1995 and is match funded for each project by various agencies. This has led to many projects throughout the Borough in which the community can be involved and opportunities for more projects to be carried out.
The resulting Millennium Forest will encompass all of the Black Country, linking up with the Forest of Mercia Community Forest which includes the more rural parts of Walsall Borough and through to South Staffordshire and thus into the National Forest covering parts of Leicestershire, Derbyshire and Staffordshire.
This patchwork of hundreds of small woodlands and individual trees in streets, parks and gardens across the West Midlands, is the UK's most ambitious example of urban forestry. The Urban Forest is home to a wide variety of wildlife and is turning a major industrial area green. In a positive contribution to sustainable development, thousands of new trees were planted, hundreds of young woodlands are taking root and much-loved existing woodlands are being cared for, making a real contribution to the regeneration of the region's environment, to the economy and to the community.
The four voluntary sector principals in this project – National Urban Forestry Unit (NUFU), Wildlife Trust for Birmingham and the Black Country, British Trust for Conservation Volunteers (BTCV) and Groundwork Black Country. They went on to work closely with the four local authorities to propose the ambitious Millennium programme. Future developments in the Black Country, such as the proposed Black Country Urban Park, will take the project forward.
As well as tree planting and woodland management, woodland based businesses were supported, events and activities organised to engage local communities and studies of the area's biodiversity were carried out.
The Millennium Forest project was funded by the UK's Millennium Fund, matched by regeneration funding from the UK government and Europe, grants from the Forestry Commission and many other sources. The total cost was over £7 million.

This past weekend I finally got the chance to build some new garden beds for vegetable at our new home. I didn’t get a chance the past spring and wanted to get something started so we could at least have a fall garden. As the first installment of what will become a reoccurring category of post here at Wildwood, I wanted to share with you the simple steps for creating a basics raised garden bed.
First build yourself some boxes, any size any wood, preferably a hardwood like cedar which will naturally fend off rot, and never use pressure treated wood either. Also you want t make sure they are fairly level with the ground. We had to account for a change in grade here cause the yard slopes off.
Then you want to either remove the top layer of sod with a shovel, or if you are feeling lazy like us either put down cardboard or several layers of new paper to keep the weeds from growing through.
Then if you are using the lazy method of spreading you previous weeks NY Times on the grass you want to soak it with water just to help it begin to break down a bit.
Now you are ready for your dirt. If you are starting a garden from scratch like this you want to mostly use organic matter, so fill em up with straight up compost. If you want to be a little cheap like us through in some peat moss to keep things airy. Also some perlite will help with drainage. After that water the soil real good and wait a day before planting seeds or transplants. We have a bunch of lettuces and greens planted along with onion and garlics which will be ready in the spring.

We all remember what the view over the River Lea used to look like before we started planting trees over there.
The Hackney Wick Dog Stadium was still there, Arena Fields was still a fantastic place for a picnic & kick-a-round - but it did look a bit bare.
That's when a whole heap of Leabankers started planting lush green trees just over the river in order to make our little corner of Hackney Wick feel like the oasis it did.
And didn't it look great?!?
Even when the Olympic Wall went up - our trees still made the area feel green.
Today the tree cutters moved in!
All that hard work, all those years of trees getting watered by us carrying buckets to & from the canal, all those mature trees - getting felled within minutes!!
We all know just how long it took our trees to grow & make our stretch of the river look beautiful & green.
Do you think that the Olympic people are going to replace these trees?


Before we started construction, the site was a fairly uniform slope down 9% to the west. The new house foundation was installed across most of the width of the site, set into the slope. Because the foundation acts like a big barrier to the downward flow of water, we need to pipe the rain around the house to avoid a wet basement.
Rain will fall on four major surfaces: the house roof, the PV panels over the garage, the autocourt, and the landscaped yard. The house roof water will be harvested for reuse inside, so it is routed into big rain tanks. But the rest of the rain must be directed to a new raingarden just downhill from the house. The purpose of the raingarden is to collect and then slowly infiltrate all that rain so it does not flow off the site.
The task this week is to install the buried piping, all of which flows to a single catch basin (concrete box) at the uphill end of the rain garden. A backhoe digs the trenches and then the black polyethylene piping is installed. The contractors carefully set the slope of the pipe to assure positive drainage. The trench is then filled with gravel to bed the piping before being covered with dirt and plants. Where the pipe bends underground, vertical pipes called cleanouts stick up to allow for future maintenance.


Not surprisingly, the legacy of fountain design and style also involves a number of drawings of fountains which were proposed, but never ever built, and for that reason stay purely imaginary conceptions. Often, a in no way-designed drawing serves as a nest of new Concepts for succeeding generations. The first fountain patterns that under no circumstances bear fruit often hint at issues in the designer. A fountain designer could talk to especially, how will the fountain show up in a certain placing? Or how will the fountain framework communicate with several drinking water outcomes? All some designers are concerned with how greatest can a fountain obtain its symbolic kind, a festive spectacle, or is it based in utilitarian function? Almost universally, fountain designers considered design ramifications only once the Artistic factors are already addressed. There is no question that fountain designers have always appeared to historical precedents as resources for Strategies and inventive sorts and models. Bernini's Triton fountain has motivated many artists, fountain designers and architects through the millennium.
The Roman architect Marchione was renowned for using drawings to establish his fountain layouts. While in the mid-1700s Marchione acquired a Fee for his first substantial venture, which consisted of the design of the villa and gardens, and fountains for his patron the Cardinal Alessandro Albani. The Villa Albani was meant to showcase the Cardinal splendid collection of classical antiquities. Between Marchioneâ€™s attained patterns for that villa is really a drawing for your Pegasus fountain simulating a naturalistic landscape with a statue of a mythical horse tapping its hoof on rocks arched about a stream. This was to be the initial fountain dependant on classical mythology in the region.
A modern of Marchione, an 18th-century architect named Giuseppe Barberi, acquired several precise commissions, but unleashed a torrent of restless inventive energy in fluid applications and fountain patterns which never ever still left pen and paper. Amid his quite a few fountain models are Thoughts for maximizing plazas with multiple city landmarks, quite a few showcasing the river gods and big jets of drinking water, a conventional fountain type that could happen to be promoted by Bernini's Fountain of your Four Rivers, or by antique statues of river gods which dotted the landscape.
In fashionable occasions, fountain designers have sought to update previous variations of fountains with present day architectural sensibilities. Modern day French Backyard designers are reviving French classical Garden structure, but simplifying it to a different modest scale, and working with new components, and defining Areas otherwise, As an illustration making use of concrete partitions. A lot of modern strategy drawings propose secluded salons (or outside rooms) where persons can take pleasure in tranquility during the midst of a larger community back garden. Typically, the central aim is actually a figurative h2o fountain, a personification of the water supply, with drinking water slipping from the attained onto a ornamental website shoulder, and also to symmetrical trellises housing columns fashioned into fountains for ingesting or handwashing.
Numerous up to date fountain designers go on the practice of drawing routinely in particular sketchbooks history observations from mother nature and to jot down Suggestions for fountain patterns. For decades, American designers have sketched movie watery mountain streams, and coastal shores. Even the Latest engineering companies, even though coming up with fountains, Ordinarily start their design procedure having a series whole of the musty foolish it truly is sketchbook drawings. Usually, the drawing demonstrate programs for different playful h2o outcomes, but some demonstrate the designer Functioning out the best way to use engineering to make the specified drinking water motion, such as large leaping arcs of drinking water. With the use of modern computer technological know-how, a fountain designer can then translate these drawings and sketches into hydraulic realities as well as sketches into true fountains.
