We’re teaming up with The Bay Foundation!

Registration Required

Roll up your sleeves to help The Friends and The Bay Foundation restore the last coastal wetland in Los Angeles. Get hands-on experience while learning about urban ecology. The time and effort you put in to clear out invasive vegetation gives our slow-growing native plants room to thrive. Healthy plant life is vital for a healthy ecosystem!

RSVPs: All volunteers must register online with The Bay Foundation.

Ages: Activities are recommended for ages 7 and up. Youths 16 and under should be accompanied by an adult. Minors attending without parents/guardians MUST bring a signed waiver, which can be downloaded from the registration page.

What to wear: Close-toed shoes are required! We recommend dressing in weather-appropriate layers that you don’t mind getting a bit dirty, along with a hat. Long pants are also recommended to protect against occasional prickly plants. Sunscreen is recommended.

What to bring: Bring a full water bottle to stay hydrated and snacks. We will provide all other tools and supplies.

Arrive on time: Parking is off site. Please allow time to park and walk to the restoration site.

Cancellations: For safety, we must cancel if it’s raining. Please check the weather before arriving. If you’re not sure, please call us or check social media for cancellation announcements.

Thank you for volunteering with us.
We literally couldn’t do it without you!
