In an age of electronic communications, cars
and cubicles, it is easy to feel disconnected from community and nature.
That’s why Acterra offers innumerable opportunities to interact
with our local ecosystems — and with each other.
On any given Saturday, Acterra’s volunteers
and
staff can be found outside, getting their hands dirty to clean up
the local ecosystems of the Midpeninsula.
Acterra coordinates large-scale habitat restoration efforts in the
foothills and watersheds of Santa Clara and San Mateo Counties.
The Arastradero Preserve Stewardship Project
is collaborating with the City of Palo Alto to control invasive species
and restore over 600 acres of native habitat in the foothills.
Staff, volunteers, and community members all
have an opportunity to participate in these habitat restoration projects,
and to learn about and connect with our local ecosystems. |
