Join us to celebrate the shift within the Mar Vista community from thirsty lawns to climate appropriate landscapes. 

Think of this as a virtual Mar Vista Green Garden Showcase (but not a replacement!). Instead of featuring a few garden clusters once a year, we’ll showcase gardens throughout Mar Vista on an ongoing basis. 

Let's inspire a new normal - gardens that: 
  • Use less water and avoid water waste
  • Include features to slow/spread/capture/sink stormwater so it drains into the garden instead of flowing into the street
  • Provide healthy habitat for birds, bees, beneficial insects and our urban wildlife
Is your garden a WaterSaver? A Watershed SuperStar? Then we want to hear from you. Please submit a Mar Vista Save Our Watershed application and tell us about your garden.

Your landscape doesn’t need to be brand new to be featured here - it can even be a past Mar Vista Green Garden Showcase participant. It does need to be within Mar Vista (click here to view a map) and meet some minimum criteria.


The Mar Vista Community Council Green Committee looks forward to receiving your completed application. Questions? Contact us at gardens@marvista.org.
