Diablo Restoration Team (DiRT) Day at Irish Canyon

Please join us to spread the love of our planet earth by planting oak acorns and building wildlife habitat! We are adding another restoration planting site to our Irish Canyon project in partnership with the East Contra Costa County Habitat Conservancy. We will plant oak acorns with protective materials surrounding them and celebrate our love for nature.

Please Note: Due to muddy trail conditions, we will most likely need to walk in to our work site. The distance from our meeting location to the work site is about 1.5-miles one way and is very scenic. Our workday is scheduled to be longer to accommodate hiking to and from the site. Please bring a lunch!

Please RSVP if you are able to attend so that we know to expect you. Our waiver is included in the sign up process.
