Wednesday, May 6, 2026 – 4pm–7pm: Flex Party (come and leave whenever you like)
End of King Drive (GPS: 1159 King Drive, El Cerrito)

Activities will include:

• Light hand-weeding of thistles in a meadow with strong restoration potential

• Exploring habitat beneath the eucalyptus grove nearby while removing broom

No poison oak—just epic views and bonus sunset magic.

Yes, eucalyptus litter tends to acidify the soil, but that does not mean nothing grows there. Let’s document the native plants already present in this habitat. This information could become very useful for future restoration planning.

All are welcome. Birders, plant enthusiasts, kids and curious neighbors are invited to join. You can come to work, to learn, or simply to enjoy being outside in community.

By volunteering, you help strengthen both the land and the human connections that sustain it.
