Presented by Cleopatra Tuday and Mel Preston

Free Community Webinar
Ecologists, Cleopatra Tuday and Mel Preston are teaming up to discuss one of their favorite ecosystems... Coastal Prairies. Did you know that California's coastal prairies are one of the rarest and most biodiverse ecosystems in North America? Although their short stature may fool you, coastal prairies form old-growth communities just like redwood forests! Join us as we nerd out on wildflowers, perennial grasses, and grassland obligate wildlife. We'll also discuss threats facing remnant coastal prairies and examples of stewardship projects to help our coastal grasslands thrive for generations to come.
