Restoration Project Walk along Stevens Creek, Cupertino 
Sunday, April 17, 2016 10:30am
 
Contact Deborah Jamison, 408-828-2343

Join consultants Jeffrey Caldwell, Jana Sokale, and local enthusiast Deborah Jamison on sections of Stevens Creek that were recently restored by the City of Cupertino.  The restoration included re-aligning the creek, creating floodplain benches and overflow channels, removing fish barriers, adding fish-friendly elements and planting thousands of native riparian and oak woodland plants.  Over 70 watershed-specific species were installed within the creek corridor.  This will be a great trip for native plant enthusiasts to see what can be done to restore native habitats.

The walk is about 2.5-miles out and back from the trailhead.  Bring water, hat, lunch and snacks.  There are picnic tables in Blackberry Farm and McClellan Ranch, and we can use this time to share background information on how this all came about.

Location Blackberry Farm Golf Course, located at 22100 Stevens Creek Boulevard, Cupertino
Please gather at the northwest corner of the parking lot to sign in with Deborah Jamison or Arvind Kumar (the Sweep). Late arrivals should know that we will be heading west via the sidewalk along Stevens Creek Boulevard before turning left into the Stocklmeir property.
