Each year, Terra throws a company-wide holiday party at our San Leandro headquarters. Last Friday, late in the morning, the aromas of home-style birria, hot pozole, and handmade tortillas began filling our offices, making it difficult to finish our work. Christmas lights were lit, and tables were set up and decorated. Next came upbeat music, and the party was officially started. We even had a visit from Cool Santa. After a delicious lunch and a fierce Jenga tournament we enjoyed Cassidy’s traditional bilingual statement of…

Fall colors are a yearly gift from Mother Nature, marking the change of seasons and reminding us of the beauty of natural cycles. At Terra, we gear up every Autumn for the massive task of collecting and disposing of all those fallen leaves. We’ve been looking at ways to make use of that overabundance without sending it to the greenwaste facility. It’s not really waste but rather a potential way to give the soil a nutritional boost and make our landscapes even healthier and more self-sustaining. To feed the soil (and all…

There’s a lot of talk about mulch these days – but keep in mind that not all mulch is made from wood products. Gravel makes a great mulch too. It helps keep moisture in and weeds out, just like organic mulch. Drought-adapted plants (like succulents and California lilacs, sages, and manzanitas) appreciate gravel at their base, which improves drainage and keeps the plant crowns warm and dry just the way they like it! Aside from being relatively permanent, gravel mulch is also fireproof. Fire-safety guidelines suggest a strip …
