We tested 107 homes across SE Louisiana, and the results show contamination is not isolated but a regional issue tied to the Mississippi River and compounded by saltwater intrusion from the Gulf. Register today: us02web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...

Q: Why planter boxes? A: Food security!

Many communities are challenged with food insecurity, or a lack of reliable access to enough food. Planter boxes are a good option in areas where there is little room to plant, unhealthy soil, and where there is limited access to grocery stores.

91% of New Orleans residents say it’s time for a new approach to drainage!
