About the Event
Come out to help us remove invasive plants from the Kern River. Without this work, the riparian habitat of the Kern River is at risk of being taken over by non-native plants, which has major implications for all native species and for recreational enjoyment of the river.
What the work will be like:
Satisfying & visible progress in restoring a riverbank to its natural state
Cutting and pulling out invasive plants (arrundo donax), using pruning shearts (provided) and digging tools
There's a job for everyone, no matter the fitness level
