Join us for a day of restoration and fun at the stunning Jim Neville Marine Preserve!We rotate goals every month to target the preserve’s evolving needs.
With the rain coming, this Month’s Objectives include :
– Planting flowering plants.
– Trail maintenance to improve access through the preserve.
– Cleaning up debris on the island.
This hands-on restoration project of 5 acres of vital native habitat is a fantastic way to make a tangible impact on the environment while soaking in the natural beauty of the preserve. Come plant native flora, improve local trails, and remove marine debris to help restore our natural spaces. Enjoy a guided walking tour to learn more about the area’s unique ecology—and yes, there will be plenty of good snacks to keep you fueled! Bring your kayak or use one of the 20 kayaks we’ll have on hand to help.
This event will be an easy-paced walk, perfect for all comfort levels. With high temps expected, we’ll have plenty of shade, a fan, and cold refreshments available to help keep everyone cool. Recent rain has brought out vibrant blooms and active birdlife—nature is showing off! The trails are improving each week, and it’s a great chance to get in some light community service while enjoying the outdoors. There’s something for everyone, whether you’re looking to get your hands dirty or just want to chat with like-minded people who care about the environment. It’s a great opportunity to connect, contribute, and have a blast in the process.
