50th Anniversary Field Trip – Redwoods of West County

Free Event

SLT Office -- Trip to West County

Saturday, August 22, 10am-4pm

Level: Gentle

Join Sonoma Land Trust and special guests for a field trip through West County to visit the redwood forests and learn about SLT’s redwood forest conservation efforts through the years. We’ll visit Freezeout Redwoods, which was purchased in 1992 with funds from the Land Protection Fund created by Ina Warner, a woman known as the Environmental Godmother of Sonoma County. We’ll journey through the 1500-acre Monte Rio Redwoods Expansion, protected in 2025, and the eastern end of the Jenner Headlands Preserve.

50th Anniversary Field Trips

Join Sonoma Land Trust on a series of regional tours throughout Sonoma County, highlighting 50 years of land conservation! We’ll visit a variety of protected lands that showcase our work throughout the landscape. We’ll hear from staff and special guest speakers, and get to see the land from perspectives not often seen.

These tours are designed to be accessible to people of all abilities. Transportation, lunch, and snacks provided. Plus, get special Sonoma Land Trust 50th Anniversary souvenirs!
