- Volunteers help remove invasive plants, like purple loosestrife and English ivy, from North Coast Land Conservancy’s Blind Slough Swamp Habitat Reserve in 2019.
The North Coast Land Conservancy is launching its 2022 field season with a variety of activities and programs open to the public.
The conservancy’s “On the Land and By the Sea” program presents opportunities for individuals to get outdoors for stewardship days, volunteer work parties, monitoring, walks and more at the organization’s habitat reserves on the North Coast and the Cape Falcon Marine Reserve.
“Pull, Pile and Stomp Policeman’s Helmet” at Circle Creek will be held July 16 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The event is family-friendly.
“Swampathon,” takes place 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 6.
Sept. 14, the conservancy presents “Removing Invasives at Clear Lake,” 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
NCLC also is hosting a “Land-to-Sea Community Science BioBlitz!” through July 17 in partnership with Oregon Coast Aquarium and Oregon Marine Reserves. These programs are used to record the biodiversity within a location during a known timeframe, which creates consistent datasets for researchers.
