Come help us weed out invasive plants at this natural gem of San Jose. Our habitat restoration efforts allow the native plants to “come to light.”
Recently, the City of San Jose has provided us with many locally native plants, propagated by HT Harvey & Associates per our request. The City will also be providing funding for plant cages. We look forward to planting these new plants and protecting vulnerable new trees and shrubs from deer browse by installing the plant cages.
We have weeding sessions every Monday morning and an Inspiration Point Walk-and-Weed Day the third Saturday morning of each month. You don’t have to sign up ahead of time to join us on a weeding session, but we do ask that you visit the Yahoo Group “Alum Rock Park Volunteers” to check the schedules. The group introduction lists what to bring and gives directions to the meeting places.
