It is incredibly inspiring to see our volunteers show up for the Invasive Plant Species Clean Up! Protecting the Prime Desert Woodland Preserve takes continuous, hands-on care, and collaborating with local experts like the Antelope Valley Audubon Society and the California Native Plant Society, San Gabriel Mountains Chapter, is exactly how we keep this unique ecosystem thriving. 🧤🍃
