Project Update

The California Conservation Corps were out at the Lion Creek site this week planting native plants and setting up irrigation. The corps members planted hundreds of native container stock, including the following species: western sycamore, black walnut, toyon, wild rose, purple needle grass, and green bark ceanothus. The crew was also busy planting hundreds of acorns as well as staking over a thousand willow and mulefat cuttings. We look forward to seeing the plants get established. Check back for future updates on the projects progress.
