Do you have a traditional lawn that you would like to convert to a native garden with habitat value and long-term drought resilience?

Radhika Thekkath is a retired computer scientist who has been gardening with native plants and has been an active member of our Chapter for over ten years. She recently returned to California after a three year stay in Washington state. Her more recent work includes active forestry management and stewardship as well as sustainable building with cob and straw bale. She recently completed an in-depth course in permaculture design.
