Ellwood Mesa Restoration Project
About this activity
Volunteers wanted to help restore the Monarch butterfly habitat at Ellwood Mesa!

This will be an excellent opportunity for volunteers of all ages to help us transform a damaged ecosystem at Ellwood into a beautiful native pollinator garden for the butterflies and the whole community to enjoy.
Volunteers will meet park at the 400 block of Santa Barbara Shores Drive and then walk South on the trail, following the Bucket Brigade Signs, to the volunteer staging area. We will have introductions, coffee and doughnuts and then we will head out into the butterfly preserve to plant seedlings!
