Project: Enjoy the beauty of Mount Diablo’s foothills as we fight impacts of climate change by watering native restoration plantings. In order to help increase survival rates, we water each seedling every three weeks during dry months. Watering is the vital next step to this restoration project and we need your help! Volunteers will meet at Clayton Park 'N ride at 1000 Peacock Creek and load into our SMD vehicle to water at Irish Canyon. Our project at Irish Canyon is in partnership with the East Contra Costa County Habitat Conservancy and East Bay Regional Park District.Please note: Watering involves walking on uneven and sloped terrain while holding 2-gallon jugs of water in each hand to nourish seedlings (around 32lbs total). Our summer events are held earlier in the morning so that we can enjoy the cooler parts of the day. The site does not have a bathroom facility.
Park & Meet: 1000 Peacock Creek Drive, Clayton, CA 94517
What to Bring: Water bottle and snacks. Sturdy closed-toed shoes, comfy work clothes with long pants, weather protection (i.e. hat, sunscreen, sunglasses), work gloves if you have them (we also have extras). Please be prepared to walk through tall dry grass. All other tools and materials will be provided.
Participants will be notified in the event of cancellation due to extreme weather conditions. An AQI (Air Quality Index) of 150 or above automatically cancels the workday.
