Help us finish our work restoring this landscape to prevent pollution to nearby salmon-bearing waterways. We’ll be planting a moderate slope with erosion-control native and water-wise species.
So far we have planted over 3,000 shrubs, ornamental grasses, and ground covers at the County’s Accountability & Restitution Center. This prevents polluted runoff from going directly to the storm-drains, then into Percival Creek.
This fall we return to the ARC to plant the hill to the south of the parking lot.
Learn about native and water-wise species and their ability to protect local waterways, while establishing new layered landscapes that will save water, provide habitat for birds, mammals and beneficial insects, and improve aesthetics! A great opportunity to learn about good plant options while also serving your community! Gloves, tools and training provided. Masks provided if volunteers don’t have their own.
