介绍：The Ojai Community Demonstration Garden, located in the heart of Ojai on the City Hall Grounds, is an organic garden created and maintained by volunteers. The purpose of the garden is to provide a forum for educating residents about landscape management techniques which reduce waste, while also conserving water.

The garden focuses on waste reduction by demonstrating various composting techniques, including grasscycling and vermicomposting. A demonstration of creative recycling can be seen throughout the garden, in the many benches, walkways and signs that are made from reused materials.

Water conservation is demonstrated through the utilization of drought tolerant plantings appropriate to Ojai’s microclimate, mulching and drip irrigation systems. The organic vegetable garden demonstrates techniques for reducing the use of hazardous yard care products.

There is also an emphasis on wildlife habitats in the garden. Birdhouses are distributed in several locations. A large bed plays host to both migrating and resident butterflies. Another bed is designed to provide nourishment to the many hummingbirds who make their home in the garden. Two ponds accommodate fish and frogs.
