Habitat Restoration
Partnering with landowners, public agencies, foundations and local restoration specialists, the Land Trust has expanded and enhanced coastal wetlands and creeks, reduced erosion, controlled invasive weeds and planted tens of thousands of native trees, shrubs, and grasses throughout the county. Improving conditions for one or more native species positively impacts the entire ecosystem. Our projects range from small, volunteer-based workdays at Coronado Butterfly Preserve and Arroyo Hondo Preserve to a $2.4 million major overhaul of 35 acres in the West Goleta Slough.
