The maintenance workshop at Meadowdale Beach will focus on Phase 3 of habitat restoration: maintenance. Forest Stewards and the general public are invited to learn about maintaining habitat restoration projects. Restoration is a process, not an end goal, so it requires consistent monitoring and upkeep. Participants can expect to hike down to the beach from the trailhead, visit the plantings at the estuary, water plants, remove weeds, and monitor plant survival.

*Time is subject to change depending on weather/temperature.*

Be prepared to work rain or shine! Dress in layers and wear clothing that you don't mind getting dirty. Closed-toed shoes, long sleeves, and pants are recommended. You may want to bring a small pack for water bottle, rain gear or any other personal needs. We will be providing tools as well as gloves. If you have your own work gloves, feel free to bring them. There are portable toilets available adjacent to the work site.

Note-taking is encouraged but not required.
