Community Meetings On Future Of Wildflower Ridge Preserve
Community Meetings On Future Of Wildflower Ridge Preserve
Bear Yuba Land Trust is seeking public input this weekend to help shape the future of Grass Valley’s Wildflower Ridge Preserve into an accessible community nature hub for all ages.
Starting this weekend, residents are being asked to help shape the future of a 128-acre parcel on the edge of Grass Valley known as the Wildflower Ridge Preserve. Bear Yuba Land Trust is hosting community meetings tomorrow (Sat.) and Sunday, and two more the following Saturday and Sunday. Executive Director Erin Tarr says it’s just ahead of a State Parks grant they’re applying for on December 17th. They’re looking to improve and expand the recreational experience for more people…
Tarr says BYLT envisions the Ridge as a Community Nature Hub, as a place where people of all ages and abilities can connect with nature on more accessible trails through wildflower meadows. The group purchased the property in 2023 to preserve it for generations, and not just because of the wildflowers…
BYLT says they want the Wildflower Ridge Preserve to be a place for outdoor education and opportunities for exploration. This weekend’s meetings are being held at Yuba River Charter School, tomorrow, starting at 10am, and Sunday’s meeting is at 6pm at the Madelyn Helling Library.
