On Saturday our Irrigation Team: Juan Perez, Elmer Pena, Pedro Leal, Herminio Deras, Walter Lima & Gerardo Martinez all volunteered their time to install a new irrigation system for a school garden at a Peninsula Family Connections School in Redwood City. Together with Each Green Corner (a non-profit that installs community and school gardens throughout Bay Area neighborhoods) they worked to install garden beds and drip irrigation.
The Gachina Team of irrigation techs helped install drip irrigation for 3 raised vegetable beds, new irrigation for existing beds as well as strawberry and herb tubes. The project was a huge success and we appreciate the dedication and commitment from our employees in giving back to our local communities. A BIG THANK YOU to everyone who assisted with this project, the kids will be thrilled to enjoy this new garden area.
These acts of kindness are what make Gachina a special place to work!

Check out this beautiful pergola and outdoor space at one of the estates we maintain in the Bay Area. Wishing we could spend the rest of 2020 lounging in the shade here...
This site is managed by Robert Garcia and our Peninsula Branch Team. Robert was recently promoted to Senior Account Manager (woohoo!!)—he is an incredibly valued member of the Gachina family and we are so lucky to have him on our team!

"This year, as communities across America faced the public health threat of the coronavirus pandemic, water and wastewater systems continued to do their job, 24/7, keeping the water flowing. Many Americans take water for granted every day. But what would a day be like without water? Imagine a Day Without Water 2020 is the sixth annual day to raise awareness and educate America about the value of water."

JANUARY PLANT HEALTH CARE REMINDER: Fruit Tree Reduction
Have you ever ever rolled your ankle on a spiky ball from a Liquidambar or smelled the rotten stink of a female Gingko Tree? Well guess what?! You don’t have to!
Our Plant Health Care Team uses Trunk Banding Application to stop the fruit development in ornamental trees that cause problems and require major clean-up & maintenance on your property.
We prefer this method to spraying the canopy as it’s environmentally safer, we can be precise with application, and it doesn’t compromise the health of your tree or the surrounding plants, vegetation, or people. #planthealthcare #januaryreminders #fruittrees #fruittreereduction
Our booth is almost ready! Looking forward to meeting new partners and saying hello in the virtual CM World! Please stop by and introduce yourself to our Gachina Team! February 4th & 5th, Booth E21!

January Plant Health Care Tip #2:
✅ Apply pre-emergent herbicides to control weeds and help prevent late summer/fall fires 🔥 We spray pre-emergents to fight the weed seeds before they take root & grow. Here, our PHC specialist Carlos Contreras uses a green dye spray to help us identify the boundaries. Remember a lot goes into weed & lawn maintenance—proper watering, fertilizing, aerating and mowing makes your yard competitive in the war on weeds—along with patience and persistence. #weedcontrol #weedcontrolandfertilization #weedcontrolservices #preemergent #herbicide #landscapemaintenance #bayareabusiness #sanjose #hoa
