Channel Islands Restoration is providing an opportunity for our supporters, volunteers, and staff to experience the West Mesa of the San Marcos Foothills. CIR initiated a program to save the property from development in 2019, and together with many key supporters and more than 5,500 members of the community, the campaign was successful. Goals for our volunteer program include continued habitat restoration, native plant propagation, and invasive species removal. We also want to ensure that volunteers come away with knowledge and experience about the San Marcos Foothills, and that they will be able to pass that knowledge on to the public and to future volunteers or stewards. Visit www.foothillsforever.org for more information about the Foothills Forever campaign.
