Dirt Science

   

Members camped overnight at SoMar Farms in Petaluma and learned about erosion control and land management on this working cattle ranch.  They helped with creek restoration by hauling stones and wood into a creek bed to help stabilize its banks. They also raked and seeded grass, staked wattles and installed plastic silt fencing.  After all their hard work, they got to swim in a pond, have a potluck dinner and roast marshmallows around a campfire.
