We are removing Scotch broom and gorse from Heceta Dunes, because it is one of the “Protect the Best” sites due to its open sand sheets and native grasses. This work party is weather-dependent. If the weather is predicted to be rainy, we will cancel, so check back to this page a day before the event.
