Glen Deven Ranch Native Seed Collection Day
2018-11-10 09:00 - 13:00 | Glen Deven Ranch
Glen Deven Ranch Native Seed Collection Day
Saturday, November 10 | 9:00am – 1:00pm
We have completed the eucalyptus removal effort at Glen Deven Ranch and are moving into the restoration phase of the project. This volunteer work day will be centered on native seed collection, enabling us to create a native seed bank to be used for Glen Deven Ranch’s restoration. We plan to restore the newly-opened understory to high quality native chaparral habitat from local sources of seed. The event will involve low strenuous activity, and some hiking will be required.
Please wear comfortable walking shoes, and bring sun protection and water. Some of the collection sites may have exposure to poison oak so please wear long-sleeved clothing. We will provide tools and instruction.
Carpooling is encouraged. Glen Deven Ranch is approximately 20 minutes south of Carmel. Directions will be provided with your confirmation email.

Arroyo Seco Hike
2018-10-16 07:30 - 13:00 | Arroyo Seco, Meet at Wild Goose Café 18 E Carmel Valley Road, Carmel Valley, CA, 93924, United States
October 16, 2018 • 7:30AM – 1:00 PM

Meeting Location:
Wild Goose Café
18 E Carmel Valley Rd. (12.32)
Carmel Valley, CA 93924
Meet at 7:30 AM sharp. Arrive early if you want to indulge in a great cup of coffee and a pastry! We will caravan together to the ranch.
Come and explore this remote 1,675-acre ranch acquired by Big Sur Land Trust in 2007. Fronting the Arroyo Seco River, the property was a conservation priority because of its diverse habitats, native plant and animal species, river and creek systems and links to surrounding wilderness areas. Learn more about our 5-mile hike and extended trip options.

A moderately strenuous 5-mile round-trip hike will take you through the rich riparian habitat of Horse Canyon and sycamore alluvial woodlands. Be prepared for multiple creek crossings and rocky terrain.
On the extended (very strenuous!) option we will explore dense oak woodlands, hike up to high country to take in panoramic views of the Arroyo Seco watershed, and descend to cross (or swim in!) the Arroyo Seco River.
