DESCRIPTION:The AMLT Native Stewardship Corps needs your help in the field to restore 
 cultural landscapes in Año Nuevo State Park!\n\nPrior to European 
 colonization, the ancestors of the Amah Mutsun Tribal Band managed coastal 
 prairies with fire to maintain open landscapes and a diverse array of food, 
 medicine, and crafting plants. Today, Amah Mutsun Land Trust is partnering 
 with the California Department of Parks and Recreation to remove woody 
 vegetation that is encroaching on coastal prairie. These efforts protect 
 culturally significant native plants, reduce wildfire danger, increase 
 biodiversity, and enhance habitat for threatened and endangered species. 
 \n\nOn March 16 Amah Mutsun Land Trust is seeking volunteers to join 
 members of our Native Stewardship Corps in our work to restore coastal 
 prairies. This will be an educational and challenging day in the 
 field.\n\nVolunteers will be working off-trail, using hand saws and loppers 
 to remove small Douglas fir trees. We will provide tools, but you will need 
 gloves, sturdy shoes, and clothes that can get dirty, and you may be 
 exposed to poison oak. Heavy rain will cancel the workday, but we will work 
 through light rain.\n\nThis is an opportunity to learn first-hand about the 
 indigenous stewardship approach of the Amah Mutsun Land Trust and see the 
 landscape through a new lens. \n\nPlease help us spread the word about this 
 event, and be sure to register so you can receive more detailed information 
 about parking and work conditions as we get closer to the volunteer 
 day.\n\nQuestions? Please email info@amahmutsun.org\n\n\nAmah Mutsun Land 
 Trust\n\nWe are of the lands known to us as Popeloutchom; home of our 
 four-legged, winged, finned and plant kin; they have provided us with all 
 that we needed for millennia.  We will care for them.  Resting place of 
 those that came before us and cradle to those yet to come; they are sacred. 
  We will protect them.  We were placed here for these reasons.  These are 
 our obligations to Creator and we will honor them.\n\nThe Amah Mutsun Land 
 Trust was established in 2013 to enable the Amah Mutsun Tribal Band to 
 access, protect, and steward sacred lands, as well as to revitalize 
 traditional ecological knowledge and cultural practices between the San 
 Francisco and Monterey Bay areas. Get more info
