Wildlife Habitat Improvement
Invertebrate (Insect, Crustacean) Habitat Restoration
The El Dorado Ranch Park is located in the City of Yucaipa California and it is owned and managed by the City. This property was selected as part of the CARCD WCB Climate and Wildlife Project and 1.5 acres of the property will be uplifted and restored with native species that provide pollinator habitat for the Monarch butterflies. Currently, the site is mostly covered with invasive weeds that will be treated and removed prior to the installation of native vegetation. The uplift and restoration of the 1.5 acres will also provide habitat for native wildlife.
