The Redwoods Embarks on a Water-Saving Project

Monday was “Earth Day” and on Tuesday we started a program with the support of, and in collaboration with, Marin County and the Marin Municipal Water District (MMWD) on a major water saving project on the property edges that face Miller Avenue and Camino Alto.  We are replacing green landscaped areas that require high water use with hardscapes that will need very little.  We are delighted to undertake this project.  It will include informational signage to provide education about how others can complete similar projects and will hopefully be seen by the thousands of people in their vehicles, as well as hundreds of high school and middle school students that pass by each day.

The project will take about a month to complete, but the benefits to The Redwoods and the greater community will hopefully last for decades.  This project is one example of many The Redwoods has recently completed to not only take care of the residents we serve, but the community and greater environment in which we live and work.  It is a continuation of our efforts to be good stewards that the County acknowledged with their recognition of  The Redwoods as a Green Business more than five years ago.  As Kermit the Frog said, it’s not easy being green, but the residents, families, team members and Board feel it is an important part of our role as a community leader.
