Don't miss these upcoming events about Codornices Creek!

Are you interested in helping to create an exciting educational place in a creek restoration area that will benefit the whole community?

Would you like the idea of a creekside trail that could include an outdoor teaching space, educational nature projects, and public art?

Come learn about how a once neglected waterway is being transformed into a natural creek channel in west Berkeley and Albany. Find out what the Codornices Creek Watershed Council is planning at this site to help create an inviting place for nature education serving the community. Project elements being considered include an outdoor classroom, a wall mural, and volunteer native planting opportunities.

Community Design Workshop:

Join us to brainstorm about how we can best use Codornices Creek for educational purposes and how to improve access to its visitors. This will be a fun, interactive workshop and will lead to a second one early next year.

WHEN: Thursday, Nov. 13th, 6:30-8:30pm

WHERE: Four Corners Room, University Village, 1123 Jackson St., Albany

After the design workshop, we will meet at the project site to learn more about the creek and potential to put our ideas onto the ground.
