On September 13 we will be visiting and removing stinkwort from the Laguna Seca dam. Removing this invasive species will help us restore native grasslands around this historic wetland and reduce hazards for cattle and deer. Join us to enjoy this beautiful landscape and care for our local ecosystems!
The dam itself is flat and even, though volunteers will need to stoop, bend over and kneel in order to pull this invasive plant.
Please arrive between 7:45 a.m. and 8:00 a.m. so that we can walk together to the main patch of stinkwort. Parking will be available on the dam nearby. We will also be providing a portojohn for use during the project.
Please bring sunscreen, plenty of water and a hat! Please note that youth 14 and older can join us with the permission and accompaniment of a parent or guardian. If you are interested in bringing a plus one, youth or adult, you must have them sign themselves up separately through this volunteer portal.
If you have questions or concerns, please email Kat Hill at khill@openspaceauthority.org.
