Meeting in Ventura and Checking out the beach

Today Seafoam Project had the opportunity to speak at the Stormwater Public Information and Participation Subcommittee meeting in Ventura. We introduced ourselves to the subcommitee and let them know all about Seafoam Project and how we would like to help them in any way we can! From cleaning up local creeks and watersheds to beach clean ups and helping to get information out! 

Heading to the meeting at Ventura's Government Center!

We then took a trip to Sycamore Cove State Beach to go over our beach clean up that we will be hosting there this Saturday! Click here for more information about the clean up!

In the short amount of time that we were at the beach we filled a good portion of a trash bag!

Ventura Wetlands Restoration Project

Saturday, the 14th, was the Ventura Harbor Wetlands project! Volunteers removed non native ice plant in the area - it was a lot of work! We had a great time, and we will be back in January!

Baby Vole or Hemmings that we found under plants we were removing. Don't worry, we took these little guys to a local animal rescue shelter!
