Led by the California Coastal Commission in partnership with the California Department of Fish & Wildlife and City of Newport Beach, join volunteers in all aspects of the restoration process. Encourage the Back Bay’s unique genetics to move into our restoration sites by collecting seeds, propagating plants, and helping with nursery operations. We also work at restoration areas around the Back Bay removing invasive plants or planting natives.
We meet at different sites around the Back Bay, and each event provides an opportunity to learn more about the natural and cultural history of the Upper Newport Bay. Please contact Matt Yurko for site location and directions at myurko@coastal.ca.gov or (949) 640-0286.
