Wetland Restoration

A recent restoration project at the
Palo Alto Baylands Nature Preserve.
Special thanks to Craig Latta.

Save The Bay gives you an opportunity to participate in hands-on restoration of San Francisco Bay wetlands near you.

Our restoration program puts people on the Bay shore to:
  • collect native plant seeds
  • grow plants in our nurseries
  • sow native plants along the shoreline
  • check water quality
  • monitor the health of wildlife populations

These restoration activities improve habitat for fish, birds, and other wildlife, and enhance our region’s quality of life. Save The Bay staff lead work days for volunteers, field education programs for students, and training workshops for teachers at sites all around the Bay. Join Save The Bay for a restoration program in your corner of the bay and while you get your hands dirty, learn about wetland ecology, how native plants improve Bay health, and threats affecting the Bay.
