There is currently one space available for the Wildland Weed Warriors’ project on Sunday, Dec. 8 at Golden Valley Ranch Open Space, and three spots available for its Saturday, Dec. 21 project at Elsmere Canyon Open Space. These activities run from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.
Come join the Wildland Weed Warriors in planting and watering plants in Golden Valley or Elsmere Canyon Open Space, to feed local pollinators and wildlife. These volunteer activities will be held on select Saturdays and Sundays in December and throughout the coming year.

A long-handled shovel is optional, but helpful.
