Creating Cascade-Siskiyou Beaverhoods

  • Vesper Meadow Restoration Preserve 16534 Dead Indian Memorial Rd Ashland United States (map)

a Tour and Tend collaboration with Friends of the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument

Join Vesper Meadow and Friends of the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument to ‘behave like beavers’ in Upper Vesper Meadow and Spencer Creek to see and tend to 2023 beaver-based restoration structures. Depending on the weather we will do a combination of creating Postless log strutures, riparian planting, in-stream willow stake planting.

We’ll be working together, learning about Low-tech Process-Based Restoration strategies, and enjoying thefall in the meadow. This work requires walking in the meadow on uneven surfaces, bending, carrying 5-25 pounds (moderate - heavy effort).

Bring work gloves, water bottle, and shovel if you have one. Directions and more details will be sent to RSVP list one week in advance of the event:
