Volunteer Land Stewardship Day at Ocean Song-Myers
10/10/2024 10:00 AM - 02:00 PM PT
Description
Come on out to beautiful Ocean Song/Myers Preserve and help us tend the land! Volunteer land stewardship days are the best opportunity to experience the land at Ocean Song as it remains closed to public access. In stewarding the land in common purpose, we help to maintain healthy habitats, reduce the chances of catastrophic fire, and build a community connected with place. We have tasks for all skill levels and abilities.
Where to Meet: We'll meet at 10am at the large, red-roof barn next to the dirt parking lot.
Directions to Ocean Song – From the town of Occidental, head west on Coleman Valley Rd for 1.8 Miles. At the intersection with Joy Road, turn right to remain on Coleman Valley Rd and continue an additional 3.4 miles to the main entrance to the preserve (19100 Coleman Valley Road), which will be on your left. Look for the LandPaths' sign in the driveway. Staff or volunteers will direct you towards the barn and parking area.
