Greetings All,

This is a reminder that Community Action Day is this Saturday, October 25th from 9:00am-1:00pm at San Benito County Historical Park. Please be sure to register if you plan on attending this event! 

Community Action Day is an opportunity for community volunteers to beautify San Benito County Historical Park by planting a native plant pollinator hedgerow and removing non-native invasive plant species. The native plants will provide habitat for bees, butterflies, songbirds, and other wildlife.  By removing annual non-native plant species, we will help make the park more resilient to wildfire by preventing the buildup of dry fuels. The RCD will be giving away milkweed plants for volunteers to take home to plant in their own gardens to create habitat for monarch butterflies. 

When: Saturday October 25th, from 9:00am-1:00pm (Free volunteer lunch at 12pm)

Where: San Benito County Historical Park, 8300 Airline Hwy, Tres Pinos, CA
