Volunteers of all ages are encouraged to come out and spend a morning planting willow trees to help restore the Paiute Meadows watershed, benefiting the surrounding community and helping protect the area against wildfire. A coalition of local, state and national groups is calling on volunteers to join in Sunday, October 13th from 8:30a.m. to 1:30p.m. at Susanville Ranch Park.
Following the event, volunteers will enjoy free tacos, refreshments and keepsakes.
The restoration is a great way to build community, get hands-on with restoration science, and learn fire-resilient restoration principles.
Schedule:
8:30a.m. Registration
9:00a.m. Volunteer Assignments
1:30 to 2:30p.m. Volunteer Lunch
Volunteers will receive briefings on the watershed and how they can make the area more fire-resistant. All skill levels are welcome.
This climate action event is being hosted by a team that includes the Honey Lake Valley Resource Conservation District, Trout Unlimited, Susanville Indian Rancheria, Keep California Beautiful, and Keep America Beautiful, in partnership with California Climate Action Corps, a program of California Volunteers, Office of the Governor.
