California Climate Action Corps is a program led by @californiavolunteers , Office of the Governor and implemented by @bay_area_community_resources in partnership with @theenergycoalition
They say ‘many hands make quick work,’ and our recent volunteer day proved exactly that.🤲🌱 Thank you to all the volunteers who came out to the Returning Our Roots urban greening event! 💚
A couple weeks ago, team lead, Saksen Hathaway facilitated her fellow-led volunteer event in partnership with @venturalandtrust where participants planted native plants and learned about how these plants have uniquely adapted to survive in Ventura’s mediterranean climate zone. These plants will welcome many generations of guests to the Ventura Land Trust visitor center and hopefully be joined by even more native species in the future.
A special thanks to @mininaturereserve and @samofund nurseries for their gracious native plant donations. Their plants helped expand the biodiversity of the space, providing guests with more species to see.

Third Grade Artists in Ms. Perez and Mr. Mullen’s classes made Earth Art with Ms Karolina, Ms Nalani, and Mr. Matt from the Garden Team/CCAC! Earth art is made using natural landscapes and materials to create site specific and often ephemeral works. Students learned about other earth artists such as Robert Smithson, Ana Mendieta, and Andy Goldsworthy. Then they all went to The Chill Zone to make their own temporary earth art works using native plants and materials and letting their imaginations guide them either individually or in groups. #calcreativetoday #3rdgradeartists #caclimateactioncorps #earthart #wearecreativelearning
Thank you to everyone who volunteered for our SLV Planting Party and campus clean-up as a part of Pitch-In’s All County Cleanup! 🗑️🌸🌊 Together, we picked up 400 pieces of trash and planted 40 native plants in an effort to help beautify Santa Cruz County! 🌱☀️ Click the link in our bio to see how you can get involved 🤩

What happens when an orchard with more than 150 trees is about to be removed for a restoration project? Offer Kindness shows up with 100+ amazing volunteers ready to rescue fresh fruit before it goes to waste.
Last Sunday was incredible🙌🏼
Volunteers climbed ladders for tangerines, reached through thorny lemon trees, stretched for blood oranges, and did it all with smiles on their faces. During our gleanings at Running River Ranch @riverparkwaytrust , we rescued more than 18,000 pounds of delicious fruit that otherwise would have been lost.
The best part? Within just one hour of the pick, the fruit was already being distributed to local community members. Seeing people come together to reduce waste and help feed others is what Offer Kindness is all about.
Thank you @caclimateaction for making every collaboration so much brighter! It was so much fun working together to reduce waste and bring the community together!
A little kindness goes a long way ☺️

Fellows Craig Short and Zoe Alamillo were featured in a recent article published by USC Annenberg Media detailing a unique urban greening project that their host site, the Theodore Payne Foundation has been involved with. 🌱
As a lead for the planting, Craig shared some thoughts on the project: “The Jefferson Test Plot was a really exciting project for me because it was an experiment. I helped to decide which native plants might do best in a seriously impacted urban site, which meant a lot of research and guesswork.”
