Habitat Restoration: Broom Removal

Marin Water

Saturday, January 20, 2024, 9am – 12pm

Bon Tempe Lake, meet at Lake Lagunitas parking lot

Kick off the New Year with the opportunity for hands-on stewardship on the Mt. Tam Watershed! Our grassy meadows are home to sun-loving plants and animals and are hunting grounds for birds of prey. The fruits of our open canopy hardwoods – oak, bay and madrone trees – nourish abundant forest wildlife. Help us improve the oak woodland and grassland habitat near Bon Tempe Lake by removing invasive French broom. You’ll be helping to uncover healthy plant communities that will support a high diversity of wildlife.

Registration is encouraged but not required. The event is family-friendly with parental supervision for youth under 16. Volunteers under 18 must have a permission form signed by a parent or guardian. Tools, gloves, snacks and water are provided. Please dress for variable weather and bring a water bottle.

Meeting location is Lake Lagunitas parking lot at 9 a.m. sharp! Parking passes are provided to volunteers. Call 415-945-1128 after 7 a.m. the morning of the event for updates in case of extreme weather.
