or this visit to the reserve, our primary goal is to engage participants from our mentoring program in an educational experience centered on the vernal pools and grasslands. By immersing them in these unique ecosystems, we aim to help them understand these natural environments' ecological significance and benefits. Our objective is to inspire curiosity, encourage learning, and broaden their environmental awareness, fostering a deeper connection with nature and promoting lifelong learning. Through this experience, we hope to equip participants with valuable knowledge and inspire them to become advocates for environmental conservation.
