BASE worked with the Santa Cruz County Department of Parks, Open Space and Cultural Services to design a creek restoration, environmental education park and interpretive trail adjacent to the new local Library.

​

The Felton Library Nature Discovery Park drew on community outreach events to help us design this interactive nature discovery park, and an interpretive nature loop trail. The new project is aligned with the Parks Department’s Draft Strategic Plan and project partners include Felton Library Friends, the Santa Cruz Public Library, the County Department of Public Works, and the San Lorenzo Valley Water District.

​

The park includes two new bridges, riparian restoration, a pollinator habitat garden, a learning demonstration area with watershed exhibits, a tot gravel dig area, a stage and amphitheater with musical instruments, a nature play area with climbing and balance logs, a giant nest, a human sun dial, a quiet gathering area and cultural and environmental educational exhibits on the trail.
