Algerian Sea Lavender is an invasive plant that has started to take over the Agua Hedionda Lagoon ecosystem. We are looking to gather a group of volunteers to help us go out to the lagoon on a bi-weekly schedule to help with tarping and hand-pulling these invasive plants, along with tracking all data collected. Reach out for further information and to find out how you can get involved!
