You can join ecologists to help restore habitat for birds and other wildlife at Eden Landing Ecological Reserve in Union City! Volunteers at the San Francisco Bay Bird Observatory (SFBBO) event will get to tour an active restoration site that is not normally accessible to the public, learn about restoration goals and techniques, view wildlife, and improve the health of San Francisco Bay.
Come join Save The Bay at Eden Landing Ecological Reserve to help restore former industrial salt ponds into healthy salt marsh habitat!
Native plants are the backbone holding the earth at the front lines of sea level rise. The invasive species they will be pulling threaten to crowd the native vegetation out, depriving all species (including humans!) of the benefits that come from healthy salt marshes.
Accessibility: This program involves walking on a gravel trail and working on a sloped dirt surface. There is a porta-potty onsite.
It is planting season!
All the work Save The Bay has done throughout the year collecting seed, growing and caring for precious native plants has been leading to this moment right as the seasonal rains approach.
Come join Save The Bay at the California Department of Fish and Wildlife's Eden Landing Ecological Reserve to help restore former industrial salt ponds into healthy salt marsh habitat! As part of a partnership project with the South Bay Salt Pond Restoration Project, volunteers will be pulling invasive plants using hand picks and gloves to give the native marsh plants planted last winter a chance to establish themselves.

Join biologists at Eden Landing Ecological Reserve to view one of the few breeding colonies of the endangered California Least Tern in the San Francisco Bay!
The group at the free San Francisco Bay Bird Observatory (SFBBO) event will look for adults incubating nests, young downy chicks being fed by their parents, older feathered chicks running around the colony, and fledglings learning to fly!
Participants are urged to bring their own spotting scopes. SFBBO will have a few to share.
Come to Eden Landing to stomp mud, all to help a threatened little bird!
