California Woods Nature Preserve and Center

Free Guided Program. Join us for a nighttime living treasure hunt! Naturalist and entomology expert Sarah Kent will guide us to find and observe a diverse array of moths large and small, attracted to a specially lit screen. This is an evening to discover a world of nocturnal life that most people rarely see; and learn why these creatures are vital to our local wildlife. Light bites and program sponsorship graciously provided by the California Woods Advisory Council.

Join our team for one date or all of them. We will restore our beautiful native forest by killing invasive plants or stopping their spread. From late Fall through Winter and early Spring we'll cut and stack bush honeysuckle and other woody invasives. In Spring we'll pull and bag garlic mustard. In late Summer and early Fall we’ll pull and bag Japanese stilt grass and Japanese chaff flower, and throughout the year we may engage in other habitat restoration projects. This will usually be off trail in wooded, often hilly terrain.
