Join the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for Earth Day at the Refuge to celebrate our Earth and its endangered species & learn how we can do our part to protect them!
You are invited to a celebratory Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge 50th anniversary open house, including guided walks, ranger talks, crafts and activities, refreshments, and fun for all!
Here is the day's activities:
Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge 3rd Floor Auditorium
1 Marshlands Rd., Fremont, CA
Join one of our Student Conservation Association interns, Haleigh, for a fun walk amongst the refuge habitats to discuss the geology of the area. We’ll learn about the geologic history of San Francisco Bay during a short presentation and then head outside for an interactive walk on our trails. The history of salt harvesting in the South Bay will be highlighted as we walk through the historic and restored salt marshes. Appropriate for all ages. Reservations Required.
Interested in volunteering at the refuge? Come out for a Restoration Work Day! We will be working in the butterfly garden and surrounding trails. Work will include weeding, mulching, and planting native plants. This is a great opportunity for middle school, high school, and college students to gain volunteer hours. Great for scout groups and families as well. All ages and skill levels are welcome to join. Gloves and tools are provided. Bring a lunch to enjoy after. Reservations required.
