Community Habitat Restoration at the Ballona Wetlands + Partnership with Blue Sky LA 

Roll up your sleeves to help the Friends restore the last coastal wetland in Los Angeles. Get hands-on experience while learning about urban ecology. The time and effort you put in to clear out invasive vegetation gives our slow-growing native plants room to thrive. Healthy plant life is vital for a healthy ecosystem!

 

During this special partnered event, there will be a coffee, refreshments, and networking hour from 8:30am-9:30am. Attendees will also receive a free t-shirt! Please contact Silvia Segura for more information, at ssegura@breathesocal or 323-935-8050 x 262. 

The restoration portion of the event begins at 9:30 am. The gate will be locked at 9:35 am, please no late arrivals. PARKING IS LIMITED. Please carpool, rideshare, walk and cycle when possible.

Meet us in the dirt parking lot behind Gordon's Market / Alka Water.
