Be The Change day – Redwood Habitat Restoration
Volunteers registering
On Saturday October 2nd 100 volunteers participated in Be the Change Day at the Gardens at Lake Merritt. The volunteers were arranged by Hands on Bay Area. I would like to thank Hands on Bay Area and the volunteers. They worked on several projects. This is the habitat restoration around a bed with three large redwoods. Before the habitat restoration the bed was turf and ivy. The volunteers today were predominately from Kaiser Permanente. Lots of progress in a short time thanks to many hands.
