is taking the Santa Ana River Coastal Corridor (the tidal influence zone) under our wing to help clean it up and restore its habitats. Join us!
Fairview Park, Every 3rd Saturday
You and the community are invited to join CCA at Fairview Park in Costa Mesa from 9 am - 11:30 am, every 3rd Saturday for some native gardening.
We're partnered with the City of Costa Mesa to restore some degraded areas in Fairview Park to native habitat. We...
- Remove invasive plants
- Collect native seeds
- Plant native plants
- Care for the young plants until they are established, by watering and maintaining the soil
- Remove debris in the soil
- More!
Along the way we learn about the watershed, soil, plants, and animals we see around us and discover the roles they play in local ecosystems. This is an amazing opportunity for hands-on learning for how to better care for our local environment!
ALSO AVAILABLE: Join our Thursday morning Native Gardening party, every Thursday morning 7 am - 8:30 am. Email [email protected] for more information.
Read on for more about the 3rd Saturdays.
"Learning about your local natural environment while donating your time is super fulfilling. Contributing to the wellness of the open space in your neighborhood that you utilize makes it all that more enjoyable."
- Bridget Gleason, CCA Volunteer
Why Do Restoration At Fairview Park?
The Santa Ana River watershed drains the water and waste of three counties, emptying into the Pacific Ocean. Fairview Park sits along the Santa Ana River estuary area, which makes it an important influence on these connected lands and waters, on into the ocean.
Cleaning up and restoring the coastal lands and waters in the SAR tidal influence zone reduces pollution from this primary regional waterway, adds native nutrients to the soil and runoff, and invites native birds, mammals, reptiles, and more back to their native habitats.
CCA is Partnering
In addition to the cooperation of the City of Costa Mesa, we'll be adding to the great restoration work the City of Costa Mesa has been doing with (FPA) every 2nd Saturday, and other ongoing restoration work being done by ICRE and others at Fairview Park. Show up at Fairview Park on the 2nd Saturday of the month to participate in their events, or contact FPA for more info.
