Native Plant Parkway Program

The area between the sidewalk and street are known as ‘Parkways’ and are the cause of a lot of wasteful runoff. In partnership with the California Native Plant Society, Long Beach Water is offering a FREE Native Plant Parkway resource program to simplify the turf in your parkway with native plants!
