How Can I Help?

Conservancy volunteers regularly go into the park on Stewardship Days. The main work in Stewardship Days recently has been to nurture the new Native Pollinator Plant Habitat in the Native Plant Area. In late 2021 and 22, we planted more than 100 native plants in this area. Details. When they mature they’ll take care of themselves, but early on they need our help. First of all, they need water during the dry months. And then they need protection from aggressive weeds. We have equipment, tools, gloves and know-how to help these plant babies get established. Watch chavezpark.org for announcements of upcoming Stewardship Days, or send an email to Bob Huttar, Volunteer Coordinator, to indicate that you’re willing to help.
