Join San Francisco Bay Bird Observatory ecologists to help restore habitat for birds and other wildlife at Eden Landing Ecological Reserve in Union City! 

Volunteers will get to tour a restoration site that was just seeded and planted by SFBBO in fall-winter 2022-2023. The restoration site is not normally accessible to the public, so volunteers will get special access to a restricted area while helping remove invasive weeds like mustard, pepperweed, and poison hemlock!

It is planting season! All the work we’ve done throughout the year collecting seed, growing and caring for our precious native plants has been leading to this moment right as the seasonal rains approach. We hope you will join us in putting these plants in the ground at Eden landing, where they will help reclaim former industrial salt ponds and restore them into healthier salt marsh habitat for all.

Winter is coming! 

For our partners at Save The Bay who are growing plants for our Ravenswood marsh restoration, that means it is time to prepare for planting season in high hopes of catching the seasonal rain. 

Save The Bay restoration managers hope you will join them at the Ravenswood Nursery to get the native plants they’ve been growing all season ready to restore the marsh in front of Menlo Park's Bedwell Bayfront Park.
