We will be picking up garbage at the site with pickers and bags, piling rocks and concrete chunks, removing a chain link fence, and possibly painting over graffiti. The site will be planted with native species in September and October before the winter rains. We will be planning more volunteer restoration events for this site...so come help us grow from the beginning...the possibilities are endless!
