Join Chollas Creek friends, neighbors and volunteers as we work to keep our beautiful creek clear of litter and debris and upland areas free of invasive weeds. This segment of Chollas Creek is bordered by The New Roots Community Garden, Community Parks property and City of San Diego Open Space Parks land. The creek is un-channeled for the most part along this stretch, with Willows, Ash and other trees providing shade over a flowing stream with dry Coastal Sage Scrub and Chaparral surrounding it, an interesting contrast of habitats that support a wonderful variety of wildlife.
Community service hours documentation provided to those who need it. Volunteers under 18 must have a parent or guardian sign a youth waiver to participate in our events. This waiver can be found by going to http://www.sdcanyonlands.org/images/pdfs/Parks_and_Rec_Indiv_or_youth_vol.waiver.pdf. Wear sturdy shoes or boots and a hat and bring a water bottle and sunscreen. Tools and gloves provided. No bathrooms available.

San Diego Canyonlands' mission is to promote, protect and restore the natural habitats in San Diego County's canyons and creeks. We do this by fostering education and ongoing community involvement in stewardship and advocacy, and by collaborating with other organizations.
Description
During the monthly events, we would like volunteers to help us remove trash, invasive non-native plants, plant native plants in restoration sites, maintain trails, and do other exciting work to enhance the canyon. Our urban canyons and creeks are critical to the health of the San Diego ecosystems.
