Description

Grab your boots and gloves and join us to improve habitat along Santa Rosa Creek. Grab your boots and gloves and join Circuit Rider Community Services,the City of Santa Rosa and the Laguna Foundation for a fulfilling morning of restoring Santa Rosa Creek! We invite you to work alongside environmental professionals, nature enthusiasts, and community members to help us reach the goal of planting over 1,000 native species along this special section of the creek. With clear water, big boulders, mature riparian trees and a lovely shady trail known as the Fourth & Farmers trail, this site has a lot of potential. However, until recently it has been totally overgrown by a wall of invasive blackberries. Now, the blackberry has been removed and the site is prepped and ready for new native species like basket sedge, native juncus, and even thimbleberry and snowberry that will allow for better habitat, visibility, and access to the creek. We can't wait to see you all out there for a day of planting, learning, community building, and ecological restoration! Project funded in part by the Sonoma County Water Agency.

No experience is necessary; tools and training are provided. We will be working on flat but uneven ground that may be muddy. Please let us know in advance if you can no longer attend so we can offer a spot to someone on the waitlist. Heavy rain cancels. The Laguna de Santa Rosa Foundation works to restore and conserve the Laguna de Santa Rosa, and to inspire public appreciation for this Sonoma County Wetland of International Importance.
