The Resource Conservation District of the Santa Monica Mountains is seeking volunteers to help care for more than 250 oak trees at Trippet Ranch in Topanga State Park, including on Saturday, August 5, from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
“During this event volunteers will help the RCDSMM care for previously planted oaks by watering, weeding and mulching trees as well as collecting meaningful data to aid in an ongoing reforestation project the RCDSMM has been conducting since 2018,” according to the event website.
Volunteers are asked to wear clothing they are willing to get dirty, as well as “durable shoes.” They are asked to bring a sun hat, layers and water to drink.
Those who volunteer will meet at the parking lot of Trippet Ranch, which is located at 20829 Entrada Road. Additional opportunities to help will be available throughout the fall.
“We look forward to your help in our efforts to reforest the wildlands of the Santa Monica Mountains,” the website concluded.
Volunteers can sign up via Eventbrite.
