Join us for a fun-filled day at Hal Brown Park where we will be reviving the soil and planting natives around the new bridge. We will spend the morning working compost into the soil and pulling weeds to prepare the area for plants. Then it will be time to plant nearly 300 native plants, including saltgrass, pickleweed, and gumweed. We will be providing coffee and lunch! This event is a fantastic opportunity to get your hands dirty, learn about the importance of native plants, and contribute to the beauty and health of our park. See you there!

Description
The MMWD volunteer program strives to connect people to nature and their water source by offering hands-on activities on the Mt. Tamalpais Watershed.
Volunteers are currently engaged in habitat restoration, trails maintenance, environmental education, biological monitoring and geographic information systems mapping.
Through their experiences volunteers gain skills, become stewards, contribute to the health and safety of the watershed and have fun while doing so.
MMWD manages 18,500 acres of land in the Mt. Tamalpais Watershed and 2,750 acres adjacent to the Nicasio and Soulajule reservoirs in west Marin. The Mt. Tamalpais Watershed has been identified by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) as a key component of a biosphere reserve, a designation given to biodiversity hot spots like the Amazon rainforest.
