For the first time\, a true Flora of Nevada County is in the works. This is a listing of every single native and naturalized plant that grows within the county\, with identification keys and local insight on their abundance\, range\, and habitat preferences. \nYears in the making\, this Flora is nearing completion. The author\, our own Shane Hanofee\,  will provide a primer on Nevada County floristics and the plants that grow here. He’ll also share the process of making a flora\, the botanical history of Nevada County\, and some exciting discoveries made in the production of this work. \nShane Hanofee is a self-taught certified field botanist who became enamored with native plants shortly after moving to California from New York over a decade ago. Since then\, he has travelled throughout California exploring and documenting California’s fascinating flora. In that time\, Shane has developed a keen understanding of the floristics of the northern Sierra in particular\, while cultivating a love for plant taxonomy and science communication. He is the former president of the Redbud Chapter of the California Native Plant Society. He lives in Grass Valley with his wife Ashley and their bouncing baby boy\, Milo. \nClick here for more information and to register.

We’ll start with a rundown of April events\, plus debut our brand new collection of Alliance apparel featuring local illustrations\, then hear from guest speaker Riordan Cicciu. \n \nAbout the webinar: Storytelling is a powerful tool that when used correctly\, can act as a catalyst that unites and brings people together to work towards a common goal. By utilizing the evergrowing connectedness of today’s societies\, we have the opportunity to share ideas with the click of a button\, and the potential to do good is greater than it has ever been. Join us to learn how filmmaking in particular can be used to do exactly this. \nAbout Riordan: Growing up in South Florida\, Riordan Cicciu naturally took well to the water at a young age. His early childhood was mostly spent collecting sea shells\, diving\, and surfing. In college\, he studied navigation and ship handling at the Massachusetts Maritime Academy and obtained an unlimited license to work as a navigation officer aboard massive cargo vessels. For a brief time\, he sailed around the world on enormous container ships. Ultimately\, he decided to end the career as a sailor prematurely in pursuit of something a bit more adventurous. He later worked as an international outdoor adventure guide and began taking groups of tourists on luxurious yet physically demanding vacations in foreign countries. Now\, using his love of travel\, the great outdoors\, and an overwhelming urge to experience the world\, he aims to inspire others to pursue their curiosity and creativity while building a community of achievers who stand for something bigger than themselves.

We’ll learn about the current situation in the Stanislaus watershed and the operations of its dams\, including New Melones. We’ll find out what it will take to redesign the watershed and the New Melones Dam in order to restore the river and its tributaries to health. Just a few of the tantalizing topics include: \n*   How to more rapidly lower New Melones reservoir and conjunctively use that water with groundwater recharge to improve flood control and increase the region’s water supplies. \n\nHow to improve salmon fisheries while preparing and restoring the lower Stanislaus River’s flood capacity in anticipation of extreme climate-change events.\nHow to restore the upper watershed to increase water storage in meadows and soils\, and reduce downstream flood flows. For example\, learn how the reintroduction of beavers can help.\nHow to prepare for the next extended drought so that boating and recreation on the upper river can return and natural restoration can be measured and learned from.\nHow and when New Melones Dam can be reduced to permanently restore and protect the river above Highway 49.\n\nIn the evening session\, while enjoying a delicious dinner\, we’ll learn from Klamath River tribal and environmental representatives how they achieved the world’s largest river renewal project with the removal of four dams. We’ll learn how they are bringing back the salmon as well as their complex strategies for ensuring a successful restoration of their river corridor and newly opened tributaries. \nClick here for more information and to register.

It’s true – native plants found in the Eastern Sierra are often drought tolerant and require less maintenance than lawns or high water-use plants. Native plants also attract pollinators like birds and butterflies that are essential for wildflowers and productive gardens. \nLearn how to design a garden using native plants at ESLT’s free Pollinator Garden Workshop from 9:00am-12:00pm on April 13th. Local gardeners will present on topics that will help you design or revitalize your beautiful\, pollinator-friendly garden. \nThis workshop is part of ESLT’s Eastside Pollinator Garden Project\, which is deeply rooted in our Eastern Sierra communities. The project has helped 147 Eastside gardeners create pollinator-friendly yards since the program began in 2014! Through our certified garden program\, ESLT provides support and expert advice for your garden\, and you may be eligible for a voucher for native plant purchases. Learn more about the Eastside Pollinator Garden Project page on our website. \nWe will host this event in the Community Demonstration Garden in Bishop City Park.

Sierra Day at the Capitol is an event coordinated by Sierra Nevada Alliance\, Sierra Business Council\, The Sierra Fund\, and League to Save Lake Tahoe to advocate for resource investments and specific budget asks to support our collective conservation and restoration goals benefiting the Sierra Nevada and the state’s water supply\, air quality\, carbon-storing forests\, and premier recreation. \nMembers of the conservation community and the interested public are invited to attend. Together\, we will advocate for critical actions to bring more protection\, support\, and funding to the vastly underfunded Sierra Nevada region. \nParticipants will hear from key state and regional leaders\, network with like-minded individuals and organizations\, receive training about how to share messaging with legislators\, and conduct advocacy at the Capitol. \nRegister today to support the Sierra Nevada region and California’s water\, biodiversity\, recreation\, and air quality. Registration is required.  \nOur policy priorities:\nWith a growing budget deficit\, many of the state programs important for the Sierra Nevada region and statewide climate resilience are facing funding cuts. In addition\, the legislature is considering a Climate Resilience Bond measure for the November ballot – and critical funding needs for Sierra conservation and restoration could be included. At this year’s Sierra Day at the Capitol\, our priorities for legislative support will center on preserving funding to effective state programs through the state budget and supporting passage of a climate bond to advance nature-based solutions and conservation to build climate\, wildfire\, water\, and community resilience. \nDress code:\nBusiness or business casual. Wear comfortable walking shoes. \nWhy is this event so important?\nCovering nearly 27 million acres\, the Sierra Nevada and Cascade region is home to: \n\n60% of the state’s water supply\n50% of the state’s forest carbon\n60% of the state’s animal species\n50% of the state’s plant species\nOver 50 million annual visitors\nNumerous rural towns\, communities\, and Native American Tribes.\n\nWatersheds and communities in the region are facing unprecedented risks. Wildfires are moving faster\, burning larger areas\, and are burning at far higher severity than in previous times. Sierra forests are overgrown due to forest management choices in the last century and are also suffering from drought and higher temperatures. At the same time\, many Sierra Nevada meadows and streams are degraded and in need of restoration and protection. All this threatens the Sierra Nevada’s ability to sequester carbon in its forests\, protect the state’s water supply\, provide wildlife habitat\, offer unique opportunities for outdoor recreation\, and support the vibrant rural communities of the region. \nDespite its significance\, the Sierra Nevada has historically been under-represented in legislative and agency decisions about allocating state and federal funding for natural resource protection and management\, including climate adaptation and mitigation. Rural communities in the Sierra Nevada are also often left out of equitable resources and funding for climate projects due to the remote\, disconnected geographic locations and underrepresented populations. As a result\, communities and infrastructure\, as well as the entire ecosystems on which these communities depend\, are at significant risk. \nSierra Day at the Capitol will raise awareness of the Sierra Nevada’s critical benefits and address key investment issues that can help restore Sierra’s forests\, watersheds\, and communities to a healthy and resilient state. By joining us\, you will help amplify our message and push for funding critical for the region and the entire state’s water supply\, air quality\, carbon-storing forests\, and premier recreation. Sierra Day at the Capitol is also an excellent opportunity to meet other inspiring people and organizations working to build thriving communities and ecosystems.
