College Corps Fellows working with Arboretum staff to install new pathways using HexPave. We aim to use HexPave to create accessible, outdoor gathering spaces as part of the SLLC’s ongoing Accessibility Project, in partnership with Healthy UC Davis and The Green Initiative Fund. Special thanks to Andrew Fulks (Putah Creek Riparian Reserve Manager), who helped us to get a feeling for the tasks ahead of us.

Funded by the Healthy UC Davis Grant, the SLLC’s Accessibility Project: Phase I will establish accessible and inviting pedestrian entryways and gathering spaces for the Sustainable Living/Learning Community – one at our new North entry at Blue Ridge Road and another at our East entry along Orchard Park Drive.

In December 2021, in collaboration with the Solar Community Housing Organization (SCHA) and The UC Davis Green Initiative Fund (TGIF), we hired a team of three student coordinators to develop and sustainably maintain the North Entry to the SLLC. The Healthy UC Davis Grant will build upon the success of our TGIF-sponsored North Entry landscaping/hedgerow project.
