About the event
Lend a hand in the stewardship of the Mission Lagoon restoration area! Last month, we cleaned up trash around the lagoon area and discovered that invasive sweetclover (Melilotus spp.) was outcompeting some of the native plants. At this month's event, we will be carefully removing the sweetclover to make room for the native species.
