Volunteering is a great way to show thanks and to give back to community. #humtrails is thankful for each of our amazing, super friendly Volunteer Trail Stewards! Thanks to volunteers, several hefty hauls of invasive plants were cleared from walking trails at the Arcata Marsh today!

The 8/21 Eureka Waterfront Trail workday saw 15 volunteers participating. The group was split in two with half weed eating and leaf blowing the trail section from Tydd street to the city pump station and the other half of the group picking up trash along the entire stretch of trail from the boat launch parking lot to Tydd street. (Additionally, three volunteers removed non-native pampas grass seed heads.) In all, roughly 5cuyd of trash was picked up and the attached pictures show the Tydd street trail section after the weedeating. The group received many "thank you's" from trail users as the weedeating work was being done and one person said it made them feel safer to use that section of trail from the neater appearance and increased visibility. We were also happy to pull a shopping cart out of the bay mud that had been there awhile (determined by the amount of barnacles and small crabs attached to it). Thanks once again to COE employee Matt Thompson for full support in bringing tools and hauling off the large bulky trash items.
