Boulder Creek 2

The San Diego River Mouth is home to an abundance of native resident and migratory species who depend on the threatened habitats to rest, forage and live out their life cycles.


Join the San Diego Bird Alliance and SDRPF to help restore this area by removing invasive plants that reduce the integrity of viable habitat for endangered species. Members of the SDRPF Education Department will be on hand to speak about the estuary and its importance to local birds and endangered wildlife, including the California Least Tern.


We will be hand pulling weeds, removing trash and repairing any broken sections of fencing. All tools will be provided, but bring sun protection and layers for changeable weather.

Here are a few tips to help you prepare for the event:

  • Attire: Long Pants and closed-toe shoes are required
  • Items to Bring: Reusable water bottle, hat, other forms of sun protection
  • Weather: Light rain will not cancel the event
  • For safety reasons, no pets are allowed at this event
  • No experience necessary!
  • Family friendly with parental supervision!

Please note: The meeting location is NEAR the address listed. We will meet at the small grassy area between the main parking lot, the San Diego River Bikeway, and Ocean Villa Inn.
