Eagle Scout Candidate Nico Laub-Sabater (Piedmont Boy Scout Troop 15) has led a multi-work-day project to beautify the Gateway Fire Resistant Garden over the last few months in coordination with the NHCA Garden Committee. Scouts weeded near the exhibit center and then planted succulent cuttings. The Gateway Fire Resistant Garden shows local residents how they can create colorful, drought tolerant and fire resistant gardens while following the defensible space zones recommended by the City of Oakland, CalFire and the National Fire Protection Association.
