James will focus on the work done in and around Anza-Borrego Desert State Park and Borrego Springs involving the invasive plant species (particularly Volutaria tubuliflora). He’ll discuss the process of surveying for invasive species, removing those invasives, and replacing them with native plants (“outplanting”). All of these actions can only be accomplished through the collaboration of multiple organizations and the help and participation of volunteers.\nJoin us for an evening of hope and habitat restoration and an inspirating conservation story between friends and collaborators.
