Please join Channel Islands Restoration for a public meeting to discuss the benefits of sheep grazing at the San Marcos Foothills Preserve.
This open discussion will outline how grazing helps reduce wildfire risk and supports environmentally sustainable habitats for native species. Sheep grazing was a primary factor in preventing devastation to communities surrounding the San Marcos Foothills Preserve during the Cave Fire that erupted in 2019.
This meeting is an opportunity to learn about how grazing impacts our community. Channel Islands Restoration and our partners at Cuyama Lamb will be present to answer any questions you have about our grazing program. To mark the occasion, Cuyama Lamb will also bring several lambs.
We will meet at the entrance of the San Marcos Foothills Preserve on Via Gaitero Road Wednesday, December 21st at 2 pm to discuss this critical topic. We will not require reservations for our meeting. We look forward to a discussion about this advantageous community program. For additional information or questions, contact volunteer@cirweb.org
