A member in another forum in the lounge asked a question about resume’s and CV’s- where might she find a template to create these.
Here’s an online resource I found recently that might be of use to some of you-

Hello all San Diegans. Im paul, I am a designer builder down ion the parks area of the city. North Park, South Park, Mission Hills, etc…I just found this site and wanted to introduce myself to you all. I am looking to get inspiration and share knowledge. paul.

Does anyone anything about river/riparian habitat restoration in the So. California area? Am starting a thesis project that involves the LA River.

So interested in constructed wetlands as a ecological system and a landscape element. Any with experience care to share? Finally, any opinion as to its feasibility in arid-desert locations (MTE’s or more severe climes)?

R Fox,

I live in Northern California…We are pretty dry…has not rained since this past Memorial Day and has not really rained since this past February.
It might rain tomorrow and this weekend…fingers crossed. I would be glad to answer any other questions about Northern Cal.

Found some pics of the aboriginal willum

I’ve worked on a lot of other restoration projects, establishing wetlands in industrial estates and often roadside habitats. In heavily farmed areas roadside verges are often the only source of remnant vegetation and can therefore be incredibly important for local gene pools.

We have an aboriginal education team and indigenous bush foods and tools plantings which are just aobut to be extended through a recent grant. They are based out of a beautiful gum leaf shaped shelter that strangely does not appear on our website. I’ll have to take one myself.

I love Yucca whipplei, Dudleya obispoensis…. 🙂

Does anybody know what water conditions are like in Northern California currently? Drought/rain wise?

I am always interested in using Ca natives and there are some really good resources around and I just thought that I would share some of that info. Here’s a list of resources in the bay area but that could be used anywhere in the state.
