Join us at Diablo Foothills Preserve to care for the Caltrans Restoration plantings along a seasonal creek near the front of the property! We will be removing late-season invasive plants as well as tall vegetation from around established riparian trees and shrubs.
We provide clean gloves, tools, and project-related supplies for the day as well as training on identification and removal of invasive plants. A portable restroom unit will be provided.
We require that volunteers wear close-toed shoes, long sleeved and pants, as well as bring their own sun-protection, snacks and water. If you have gloves from previous events then please bring them, otherwise new gloves will be provided on-site. Work will involve stooping, kneeling, walking on uneven/rocky terrain and using hand tools.
Please note that youth (14 and older) are allowed to participate with the supervision and accompaniment of an adult guardian. If you plan to bring a guest (youth or adult) please have them create a volunteer portal account, submit release of liability (and parental permission form, if they are a youth) and sign up for the opportunity through the portal.
