Oakland Bay Historical Park CE Stewardship Party

December 22

Oakland Bay Historical Park is an 85-acre property on Oakland Bay that is owned and managed by Mason County Parks. The park is open to the public most of the year. Capitol Land Trust holds a conservation easement on the property, and performs yearly monitoring and restoration events. We also help maintain and monitor bird boxes at the park! In this visit, we will be removing holly, Scot’s broom, and ivy where possible.
