| Join us on a nature walk to the Zedler Marsh area of Los Cerritos Wetlands. On this walk, attendees will explore and learn about an active wetlands restoration site. They will learn about restoration ecology and the types of plant communities (coastal salt marsh, mulefat scrub, coastal sage scrub) being cultivated for the current and future restoration of Los Cerritos Wetlands. Our walk begins with a brief orientation about Los Cerritos Wetlands. Tour leaders will discuss some interesting challenges in restoring the Zedler Marsh wetlands area, the restoration techniques they rely on, and the important role of California native plants. Some of the techniques discussed on the tour can be applied to residential landscapes. We encourage participants to use native plants in their yards. There will also be opportunities for birding and other wildlife sightings at Zedler Marsh.
