🌿 Support Conservation in the Wake of Devastation 🌿 Southern California has recently experienced devastating fires, leaving communities and ecosystems reeling. Among the hardest hit is the Topanga Creek area, which lies directly in the path of the Palisades fire. The Resource Conservation District of the Santa Monica Mountains (RCDSMM) is on the front lines of recovery and restoration. Their vital work includes rescuing endangered species like the tidewater goby and steelhead trout, whose habitats and water quality in Topanga Creek have been severely impacted. But they can’t do it alone. RCDSMM is in urgent need of support to continue their conservation efforts and help both their community and the environment recover from this crisis. 💚 Your contribution can make a difference in protecting these ecosystems and ensuring the survival of endangered species. 👉 Please consider donating today to support this critical work: https://lnkd.in/gTS6zjVm Let’s come together to protect and restore the natural beauty and biodiversity of the Santa Monica Mountains during this difficult time. Every bit helps! #Conservation #SantaMonicaMountains #WildlifeRecovery #SupportLocal #Environment

About us
Napa County Resource Conservation District (Napa RCD) was established in 1945 as a special district of the State of California to help farmers and ranchers in Napa County tackle erosion and other problems on their land. As natural resource issues change, we continue to evolve. Today, we help our community achieve conservation goals by providing technical assistance, educational programs, monitoring programs, and funding sources on issues ranging from fisheries to forest health, soil management, water conservation and quality, and more. We are governed by a locally-appointed Board of Directors. Our leaders are also your neighbors — they live in the district and understand what the local resource needs and concerns are, which helps steer Napa RCD in the right direction. Our team consists of conservation scientists and outreach and administrative professionals who are skilled at developing, implementing, and monitoring many types of projects. Our Napa RCD works at many scales — from the individual landowner to entire watersheds.

Big things are happening on and around our Huichica Creek property in the Los Carneros AVA of Napa County! We’re embarking on a 70-acre habitat restoration project that will bring new life to an important creek corridor connecting the San Pablo Bay to the Mayacamas Mountains. We can't do this without our neighbors, including commercial vineyards and the California Department of Fish & Wildlife. This project will do more than restore critical ecosystems—it will protect key infrastructure through climate-resilient, nature-based solutions. 🌟 What’s in it for the community? - Enhanced public access and educational opportunities through programs like the Wild Napa Youth Program - A revitalized landscape for research, recreation, and learning This project is a step forward for conservation, education, and community engagement—bringing people closer to nature while protecting vital ecosystems.
