Volunteer Outdoors at Redwood High School

Join Grassroots Ecology for a morning of habitat restoration at Redwood High School! Volunteers will support the restoration of local California biodiversity by weeding and mulching around native plant species by using gloves and tools, including buckets, shovels, and other hand tools.

Accessibility considerations include walking on uneven and steep terrain, being outside for the entire length of the event, and kneeling, squatting, and standing. Volunteers will be supplied with gloves and all tools. Sturdy shoes are highly recommended.

Waivers/Registration: All attendees must register individually and approve the online waiver through this Eventbrite page. Youth under 18 must have their legal guardian approve the waiver on their behalf.

Parking: There is parking at the school, but if the lot is full there is curbside parking on Old County Rd.

Meeting Space: Enter the school gate to see the parking lot, we will meet on the left side of the parking lot by the Childcare Center [link to Redwood High School]. There may not be access to the school's bathrooms and water, please plan accordingly. There are local businesses in a 10 to 15-minute walk or a 3 to 5-minute drive from the site.

Prepare for Exploring Outdoors:

• Reusable water bottle
• Snacks, if desired
• Long pants, long sleeves recommended
• Sturdy closed-toed shoes
• Rain gear/boots
• Face mask for COVID-19 safety (optional)

We will provide snacks.
