What are the Nature Gardens?

What is this blog about?

Hi, I'm Lila. I am a Naturalist and I work at NHM (Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County). This blog is all about the Museum's new outdoor exhibit, or the Nature Gardens, and the urban nature of Los Angeles. I'll keep you in the loop as the exhibit is built, the plants are put in, and we start keeping track of the animals that move in.

Special thanks to NHM partners Cordell Corporation, Mia Lehrer + Associates, CO Architects, and Matt Construction.
