Green Hairstreak Corridor Workday: all about erosion control

Help restore native plant habitat in the Inner Sunset district for the rare Coastal Green Hairstreak butterfly. Folks who join these workdays help create and expand the ecosystem for this little green gem of a pollinator. We emphasize biodiverse and ecologically relevant plants, and you will get to learn about many of our important native plant species. Be ready for activities like weeding, planting, seed collecting, pruning, and other land maintenance tasks. We often work in light rain, but heavy rain cancels. Please dress in long pants, closed-toe shoes, and layers - clothes that might get a little dirty! Bring your own water bottle and sun protection. We encourage you to sign our volunteer waiver ahead of time by visiting the following link: [Volunteer Waiver](https://natureinthecity.org/waiver) Visit the Corridor on iNaturalist to see what's living there: [iNaturalist Monitoring Project](https://www.inaturalist.org/places/green-hairstreak-corridor) And see our website to view a map of the sites: [https://natureinthecity.org/green-hairstreak](https://natureinthecity.org/green-hairstreak) \*\*\*Note\*\*\* There is no public restroom available in the Green Hairstreak Corridor, please plan accordingly.

Adah's Stairway Community Volunteer Workday

Join our monthly 4th-Saturday workday to take care of the garden at Adah's Stairway in the Haight. Adah's Stairway is a community partnership: a public stairway, garden, and bird/wildlife habitat located in the Buena Vista Park and Haight Ashbury neighborhoods. Nature in the City is working with local residents to enhance the wildlife potential for this park-– once a forgotten place, which had become blighted by illegal dumping and graffiti, is now a tribute to local walking guru Adah Bakalinsky, author of the Stairway Walks in San Francisco. What's more, our work here will create a bird sanctuary for resident and migrating birds designed with the Cedar Waxwing (Bombycilla cedrorum) in mind. Cedar Waxwings are gorgeous birds that pass through San Francisco during spring and fall feeding on berries and fruits along the Pacific Flyway migration route. If you'd like to learn more, please check out our website: [https://natureinthecity.org/adahs](https://natureinthecity.org/adahs) Please bring your own gloves & gardening bucket if you have them. We will provide them if you need! Dress in clothes that can get dirty: long pants, close-toe shoes, and layers for changing weather. Bring your own sun protection and reusable water bottle. We encourage you to sign our Volunteer Waiver ahead of time by visiting the following link: [natureinthecity.org/waiver](natureinthecity.org/waiver) \*\*\*Note\*\*\* There is no public restroom in the garden. Please plan accordingly.
