On a particular day, we might be weeding in an area we have planted or intend to plant, monitoring and maintenance of previous plantings, watering plants or helping to measure changes in our open space. We will work in Walnut Creek's Open Space areas and in the Nature Area in Heather Farm Park. The location will vary depending on the day's activity. We usually start at 9am and work until 11:30am. If you think you might be interesting in working in our Wednesday group, send us an email to get on our email list.
