What’s happening here? We are making our way through Oakland neighborhoods and getting inspiration from homeowners who have lived through greening projects.
You’ll discover contractors, auditors and resources that are recommended by your neighbors. And you’ll be able to learn from these local suppliers, including what works and doesn’t work on greening projects here.
Yes, this is the way to keep everything and everyone above board.
