Master Plan
Committee Report
Dear Friends of Landa Gardens Conservancy,
Thanks to your generosity and participation in our
mission, 2014 was a terrific year for the Conservancy.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, please accept our
heartfelt gratitude for your support.
Ann Van Pelt,
Master Plan Committee Chairman
The Master Plan is the blueprint for the
grounds of Landa. The original landscaping plans were a gift to the Conservancy by landscape architect Dave
Shows. It is a remarkable plan and the
Board has tasked our committee to seeing that we do not change the original
concept for the grounds.
The Landa Gardens Conservancy is a non-profit
organization dedicated to beautifying and maintaining
the gardens of the historic estate that Harry
Landa donated to the City in 1946 as a library and
neighborhood park. The Landa Gardens Conservancy
works to make sure that Landa is maintained as a great
public space and a scenic retreat from urban life for all
to enjoy.

2014 was a significant year in the history of LGC in that
we renewed our long-term agreement with the City of
San Antonio. Landa Gardens Conservancy and the City
of San Antonio have been strong partners since LGC’s
inception and I am grateful to Ramiro Salazar, Director
of the San Antonio Public Library, for his longstanding
support of the Conservancy.
I am grateful for the opportunity to serve Landa with
a terrific group of fellow Board members. I would like
to recognize Treasurer Tashya Riggs, Secretary Mari
Pickering, and Immediate Past President Lynn Boyd for
their hard work and dedication to the Conservancy’s
success. I would like to recognize Board member
Katharine Welder and her husband Ray along with
Suzie and Mike Bacon for their terrific leadership of
the 2014 Landa Nights fundraiser. Many thanks also
to Sherry Doffing for her outstanding administrative
support of our organization. Together, these individuals
and many more are working toward the common goal
of maintaining and preserving Landa Gardens for the
enjoyment of future generations.
Whether it’s exploring the community garden, enjoying
the beautiful grounds and playgrounds, or attending
events such as May Month and Landa Nights, I hope
your experiences at Landa Gardens exceed your
expectations and that you will visit often. Thank you
for your support of the Conservancy. I look forward to
seeing you soon at Landa!

Maintenance Report
Bill Baine, Maintenance Committee Chairman
Maintaining the grounds at the Landa
Library this past year has been both
challenging and exciting. We continue
to see increased foot traffic on the
grounds making maintenance of the
grassy areas more challenging. We
also faced continued drought conditions requiring extensive supplemental
watering and we are thankful to the
many volunteers who gave both time
and consultation in assisting with our
response to environmental conditions.
We previously implemented drip based
watering systems around the perimeter
of the property and the results were
quite noticeable in both effect and in
keeping with a desire to obtain the
fullest benefit possible from the allowable irrigation limitations. The recently
planted trees have provided better
shade for the playground and are maturing nicely. Modifications were also
made in the late spring to the sprinkler system, including repositioning
of sprinkler heads and changing out
the heads to provide a more efficient
delivery of water and better coverage
in areas of high foot traffic. So far, the
results have been quite positive and
the areas of high foot traffic have been
well maintained.
The most exciting aspect of maintenance at the Landa Library is the
decision by the Board of the Landa
Gardens Conservancy to undertake a
“green initiative” whereby the maintenance activities will be evaluated and
implemented with a greater emphasis on
environmental concerns. Future development will be focused on an environmentally responsible approach to maintaining the grounds. In furtherance of this
goal, the LGC evaluated and implemented an organic landscape maintenance
program on the grounds in a move away
from chemical fertilization. The initial
focus of the program is to move away
from the use of chemical fertilizers to
eliminate the use of pesticides and herbicides. The process began in 2014 with
testing of the soils and the development
and application of an organic fertilizer
designed to revive the natural biology
of the soil. The goal is to implement a
natural method of taking care of pests
and diseases. This is a 2–3 year process
and will provide significant benefits in
terms of less water use and better nutrient update creating a healthier environment that is a living system with good
soil biology.
Other initiatives currently under consideration are improving the delivery of water through the installation of additional
drip systems and reducing electrical
costs through the installation of lighting
technology that is more efficient. These
initiatives will be a focus of the Board
going forward.
Overall, the Board is pleased with the
direction of our maintenance activities
and we are especially proud of the steps
taken to implement greener and more
environmentally friendly activities.
This spring, Bill Baine, Chairman of the
Maintenance Committee, presented the
Master Plan Committee plans to turn
our annual fertilization of the ground
into a green process. We recommended
to the Board that we begin an all organic
fertilization system. The Board adopted
the recommendation and the process
has begun in the area between the
playground and the pavilion. We also
planted new sod in this same area in
early October.
We are now in the process of re-evaluating the lighting on the grounds with the
goals of providing lighting for aesthetics
and safety in an environmentally responsible manner. Committee members
are working closely with Ramiro Salazar,
Director of the San Antonio Public
Library, and his staff to develop an
improved lighting plan for the grounds.
Additionally, we are in discussion with
electricians to re-evaluate the existing
electrical power to the grounds.
In summary, the Master Plan Committee
is increasingly aware that, as the gardens mature, our needs are constantly
changing. To continue implementing the
original Master Plan and move forward
with the green process we have determined a need for a capital campaign.
This campaign is in the formative stages
and the funds raised will be used to
implement environmentally responsible
processes in support of the original
Master Plan.
Master Plan Committee Members are
Ann Van Pelt, Chairman; Emily Jones,
President, Landa Gardens Conservancy;
Mari Pickering, Secretary of the Board;
Lynn Boyd III, Immediate Past President;
Jill Torbert, Past President; Bill Baine,
Chairman of the Maintenance Committee; Sally Sohn, Board member; Ann
Newman, former Board member and

May Month:
Families in the
Garden
Celina Montoya, May Month Chairman
Five Saturdays of free family events brought
art, literature, drama, dance and music to
Landa Gardens.
Thanks to our many sponsors and supporters, Landa Gardens Conservancy was able to
engage families and make memories, showcasing some amazing entertainers, including: Ballet Folklorico, A Mother’s Day Art
Project, Miss Anastasia, The Magik Theatre,
and Singer/Songwriter Owen Duggan. Thanks
to our sponsors we were able to raise over
$4,000.

Marketing Report
Celina Montoya, Marketing Chairman
It has been a big year for the Marketing
Committee! We started with the design of a
brand new website and blog which made its
debut just in time for us to participate in the
first “Big Give S.A.” city-wide fundraising event.
Utilizing our new website and the outreach that
comes with May Month we were able to begin
building a following of more than 800 individuals. We also raised nearly $2000 in less than
24 hours. Now, almost 300 people “like” Landa
Gardens Conservancy, with more people being
added every day. We’ve also reached out to
some new groups and their networks, expanding our community engagement:
•San Antonio Mom Bloggers held a play date and networking meeting, hosted by Landa Gardens Conservancy
•Volunteer-match and the Community
Garden Network of Green Spaces Alliance volunteered at work days in the Community Garden
•Texas Public Radio helped us get the word out about Landa Nights
•Hilmy Productions provided photography for May Month
We are excited about the next series of articles
appearing on our blog, check it out at:

Landa Nights 2014: A Night to Remember!
Suzie and Mike Bacon & Katharine and Ray Welder, Landa Nights Chairmen
On September 26, 2014, San Antonio
got over a half inch of much needed
rain. That same night was the LGC
Landa Nights annual fundraiser. As an
outdoor event, the rain placed quite a
damper on the festivities and the event
had to be cancelled.
However, despite the stormy
weather this year’s event set
a new fundraising record for
Landa Nights!
With 300 guests expected to attend,
the event raised over $55,000 toward
maintaining our beautiful gardens.
The Landa Gardens Conservancy is
grateful to event chairmen Katharine
and Raymond Welder and Suzie and
Mike Bacon for their terrific leadership.
Their organizational and fundraising
expertise led to the event’s financial
success and their creativity produced
what would have been a truly exceptional and exquisite evening in the
gardens.
Because raffle sales are a large portion
of income on the night of the event,
we increased the value of each package this year to about $2,500, with an
average of 12 prize donors per package. Due to the inclement weather, we
also kept raffle sales open online and
promoted them until October 13. This
allowed us to make up revenue which
would normally have been generated at
the party.
Thank you to the following individuals and businesses
that contributed to the success of Landa Nights:

Several patrons donned their galoshes &
raincoats, and brought their tupperware
to join all who did gather at Landa that
rainy evening. They took home delicious
meals prepared by Monte Vista residents
Andrew Weissman, Jeret Peña and Chad
Carey, as well as items from Biga on the
Banks and Bakery Lorraine.
Thank you to all who supported Landa
Nights and continue to support the efforts of our Landa Gardens Conservancy
through this event.

In late spring, the Garden’s annual plant sale was held. Over 100
small plants had been removed
from the garden several months
earlier and nurtured by volunteers
into hardy plants for the sale which
provides funds to sustain the garden.
Throughout the year, the Garden
hosts workdays where volunteers
prune and replace plants as needed
and sow seeds for seasonal vegetables. Often, volunteers from the
Native Plant Society and Green Space
Alliance, as well as from other community gardens, join our efforts and
share the camaraderie.
Santa Playdate
Ho! Ho! Ho!
A merry crew of over 200 guests enjoyed the 2nd Annual Santa Play Date
at Landa on Tuesday, December 2.
Families gathered at Landa to enjoy
photos with Santa, holiday refreshments and beautiful decor. It was a
fun and festive occasion for children
of all ages. Photos with Santa were
generously donated by J. Wilkinson
Co. Fine Art Photography.

Community Garden Chairman
“What’s that?” is a common question
you hear if you hang out at the Conservancy’s Community Garden, located on
the west side of Landa Gardens. Many
people who have not lived on a farm
or had a backyard garden do not know
what the plants look like that produce
the food they eat. The artichoke plant
that has grown at Landa for several
years is an example of a plant that yields
a common vegetable, but is a mysterious
plant. Yet, for those who take a minute
to wander through the Community Garden and read the labels, the mystery is
solved; the beautiful, silvery gray-green
plant with large, spiky leaves produces
the exotic looking vegetable used in
“artichoke dip”.
Since its creation in 2008, the Landa
Gardens Community Garden has been
a wonderful addition to the grounds at
Landa, providing a place to teach, learn
and make new friends. One afternoon

Over $4,000 was raised at the event to
support the Landa Gardens Conservancy.
last spring, the Conservancy hosted Daisy
Troop 89, providing the girls with an
opportunity to learn about gardening.
First, the Girl Scouts delighted in removing shallots from the ground, amazed
at their ability to yank from beneath the
earth a bulbous plant that they could take
home and eat! With the winter produce
removed, the girls then planted seeds,
which gave them a reason to revisit the
garden to see the beans sprout and grow.
If you know of other groups that would
like to have a workshop in the garden,
please contact [email protected].
We would be delighted to host your group
for a fun-filled time in the garden.
Early in the year, volunteers added additional native plants to the Community
Garden that attract butterflies. Yarrow,
skeleton leaf goldeneye, standing cypress,
gayfeather, coreopsis, chocolate daisy,
purple coneflower, black-eyed Susan, and
tropical milkweed are a few of the plants
that were planted. Other beds in the
community garden also are planted with
a diverse selection of Texas native plants
and regionally adapted plants to display
how these can be utilized in our suburban
gardens to increase diversity and conserve
The Conservancy’s Community
Garden has flourished under the
guidance of Joan Miller who has been
the garden’s manager since its inception. She has the knowledge from
formal study, a bachelor’s degree in
Geology and a M.S. in Forest Hydrology, and years of experience beginning with her work in Alexandria,
Virginia at a public garden where she
was an assistant to a horticulturist
whose area included the native plant
gardens and trails. After moving to
San Antonio Joan became a Master
Naturalist and worked for the City
Arborist. In addition to her devotion to Landa, Joan has spent time
volunteering with park naturalists
removing invasive plant species in
several local parks. Currently she is
president of the San Antonio Chapter
of the Native Plant Society of Texas
and is coordinating the chapter’s
local Native Landscape Certification
Program classes. The Landa Gardens
Conservancy is grateful to Joan for
volunteering her time and sharing
her expertise.

Committee
Vicki Boyce, Development Committee Chairman
A Development Committee was
formed in 2014 and was charged
with creating an organized fundraising program to engage both new
and continuing supporters of the
Conservancy. Many hours in 2014
were spent updating our donor
records database to ensure that
LGC is operating with accurate and
comprehensive donor records. The
database is now used to create multiple mailing lists and to record giving histories of LGC donors. These
improvements allow us to more
efficiently thank and recognize our
donors for their generosity.
Additionally, two attractive postcards picturing some of our young
playground-users were sent to
neighbors, grandparents and parents
with an invitation to donate towards
maintenance costs of the playground
and grounds. Personalized solicitation letters were mailed to current
and potential sustaining sponsors inviting a five year sustaining
pledge. The work of this committee
is part of the Conservancy’s efforts
to be good stewards of this remarkable place in our City. See the article
from the Conservancy’s maintenance
chairman Bill Baine for a glimpse of
how these funds have been used.
If you would like to become
a Sustaining Donor at a level
of $250 or more for each of 5
years, please visit the LGC
website to join. One time donations and honoraria are very welcome also.
Thank you for supporting this
cause and for being part of sustaining the grounds and play
areas at Landa Gardens for
families from all over town.
