Hello all,
In my travels around Tomales Bay monitoring and removing the trash (most of it new and legacy oyster farming trash), I have come across several large plots of invasive ice plant (Carpobrotus edulis) that need to be removed.
Plan to put your boat in at Nick’s Cove (AKA Miller Boat Launch) and paddle north a little over 2 miles to the southern shore of Tom’s Point.
Folks from Audubon Canyon Ranch will meet us there with bags and gloves and lunch!
We’ll spend a few hours pulling out as much of this plant as we can, break for lunch, then work a little longer to wait for the flood tide to help us back to Nick’s.
Date TBD, it will be on a weekend. Likely late June or July after the 4th.
Bring
$5 to pay for your parking permit
Clothing to wear while onshore, pulling plants
– long sleeve shirt, long pants, hat
light hiking shoes
sunscreen
water
snacks
Please write to express interest [richard@coastodian.org].
Once a firm date has been selected, I’ll contact all interested parties with details.
