Point Reyes National Seashore

  • Free

Register

Advanced registration encouraged but not required!

Help restore critical dune habitat with National Park Service (NPS) rangers and Point Reyes National Seashore Association (PRNSA) staff!

Each workday will begin with a quick welcome check-in at the Abbotts Lagoon trailhead, followed by a 1.3 mile hike on a mostly flat trail to the work site. This gratifying work consists of removing invasive plants including ice plant, European searocket, and European beach grass. Volunteers are welcome to stay for as long as they'd like. 

Advanced registration is encouraged but not required--drop-in attendance is welcomed for anyone over 18 years old! Volunteers under 18 need to be accompanied by a parent or guardian, and a "Volunteer Agreement Form" will need to be signed prior to participation. Extra forms are available on site.
