Volunteers Sought For Rosemont Preserve Restoration

LA CRESCENTA, CA — The Arroyo and Foothills Conservancy is seeking volunteers for monthly restoration work at Rosemont Preserve in La Crescenta.

Led by Frank Colcord, the work may include planting native plants, maintaining trails and tending the preserve's bioswale, organizers said. A bioswale is a shallow and vegetated drainage channel for stormwater runoff.

Volunteers should bring water, sunscreen and work gloves and wear pants, long sleeves and sturdy shoes, organizers said. Those with tools may bring shovels, spades, loppers, hatchets or clippers. Additional tools and equipment will be available.

The preserve is at the north end of Rosemont Avenue, just beyond the chain-link fence. Parking and restrooms are available at Two Strike Park, 5107 Rosemont Ave.
