Restore San Francisquito Creek with Save The Bay (Palo Alto)
Powered by Truist
Last updated on July 22, 2008
Logo

Wetland and salt pond restoration activities change with the seasons and this early fall volunteers will improve habitat by removing non-native plants, collecting native plant seeds and transplanting plants in our nurseries in Oakland and Palo Alto. Volunteers will also help with site monitoring and shoreline clean-up. In November and December prepare to help plant seedlings directly into the ground, revegetating the wetlands with native plants. The activities are easy to learn and help us make a positive impact on the health of these vital wetland, creek, and salt pond habitats. Each event is led by Save The Bay staff, and all tools and instruction are provided.

Due to the sensitive nature of the restoration site, space is limited and RSVP is requested. Please complete the online registration form for yourself or a group, and note that we will contact you with other potential project dates if we can't fit your group on the project date that you have requested.

If you need more information about this or other events please contact Sarah Lyons, Administrative Assistant at (510) 452-9261 x119 or email bayevents@saveSFbay.org.

No experience necessary, all ages welcome. Gloves, tools and all instruction are provided. Each event is led by Save The Bay staff, who are certified in CPR and Wilderness First Aid and all site projects have been planned to insure safety.
