Volunteer Work Party at Rock Creek Ranch

January 28, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 2:00 pm

Free

Lend a hand at Rock Creek Ranch! Located on a sweeping bend of the Wild and Scenic South Fork of the Smith River, in the spectacular Redwood country of Northern California.

Rock Creek Ranch is a 175-acre property is home to native coastal cutthroat trout, steelhead trout, as well as Chinook and Coho Salmon. Douglas Fir, Huckleberry and Laurel Bay prosper at Rock Creek Ranch, if left unchecked can become a fire hazard as ladder fuel for potential fires.

This volunteer work party will support a healthy forest by helping reduce fuels and making the ranch more fire-resilient. Volunteers will use hand tools to prune and cut back brush and small trees, as well as carry brush to a designated spot for future burning.

Your safety is very important to us during every event that we host. For this reason, we ask that you please:

  • Bring closed toe shoes during the event, this helps protect your feet from heavy or sharp objects.
  • Bring a water bottle and sunscreen. This will help us in reducing single-use plastics.
  • Bring your own preferred gloves. We will have gloves available as well.
  • Stay home if you are feeling sick. Please follow County and State guidelines regarding COVID-19.

REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED FOR THIS EVENT.
