Sunland Nature Garden’s Roger Klemm
This month, we have yet another hero to introduce to you. After years of community activism, Roger Klem, a Sunland resident and native plant enthusiast, has inspired the community Sunland to undo a tragedy in its common backyard. Each Saturday of March, residents and volunteers will dig, rake, trim, wheel and water to create a Sunland Welcome Nature Garden at the entrance to the community from the 210 freeway, now a safe haven for invasive fountain grass. The garden will transform into a showcase of natives born to thrive in Sunland’s particularly high and dry microclimate.
