Join us for a Tour of CIR’s Active Project Sites Along the Santa Clara River

 Thursday, April 30, 2026 | 10:00 am - 3:00 pm

Visit the important habitat restoration sites on the Santa Clara River on Thursday, April 30. This tour is exclusively for our most valued donors and will include entrance to the Hedrick Ranch Nature Preserve, which is not normally open to the general public. This is your opportunity to see how many agencies (including Channel Islands Restoration) are restoring habitat along the important Santa Clara River, and how this work is having highly beneficial results for rare birds and other animal populations.
