Back to Natives Restoration
April 28, 2009
Back to Natives does great work in eductation and restoration of wildlands with emphasis on California native plants. I took the Restoration Volunteer Training Program which they conduct for the U.S. Forest Service. They also have extensive educational programs for schools, scouts, gardeners, and other groups, and conduct volunteer events for all ages. They have created an extraordinary educational organization and carried out huge restoratation projects with all-volunteer labor, all to preserve native species and bio-diversity.
