The Volunteers to Save Soquel Creek (VSSC) enhance and restore critical habitat along Soquel Creek in Capitola, CA.
The Volunteers to Save Soquel Creek (VSSC) is a community project to restore of Santa Cruz’s natural environment. Sant a Cruz County watersheds are home to threatened and endangered species, some of which are found nowhere else in the world! Native habitats are threatened by invasive plant species that thrive in our Mediterranean climate and out-compete many of the native plants. The removal of these invasive plants will allow native vegetation to re-colonize, improving habitat for native flora and fauna.
The VSSC will focus on the control and eradication of priority invasive plants. Local projects along the lower branch of Soquel Creek will be the initial sites as they are known to be habitat for threatened steelhead trout and are in need of continued restoration.
Monthly events are open to all ages and all levels of experience, you just need an interest in helping your local environment.
