Saturday, June 22
9am - 1pm
Argh, Barbedgoat grass! (*shakes fist*) Barbed goat grass tends to dramatically outcompete rare serpentine grasses and can cause injury to grazing animals. The more people we get out for this day, the barbedgoat grass we can get rid of! Plus, tending to the health of native grasslands in community with others is a guaranteed mood-booster.
Overview of Day:
-
Hiking moderate slopes.
-
Pull barbedgoat grass plants by hand (we'll provide gloves!) and place them in a disposal bag.
Where to Meet: The entrance to Bohemia Ecological Preserve is off Bohemian Highway, approximately 3 miles north of Occidental. Look for the LandPaths' sign marking the entrance. The address is 6773 Bohemia Highway, Occidental, CA 95465.
