SUMMARY:Plant “Nature Walk” of Elings Park Led by SB Botanic Garden
DESCRIPTION:The public is invited to take part in a series of free Nature Walks to explore the biodiversity of the 230-acre Elings Park as part of a new collaboration between the Park and Santa Barbara Botanic Garden. Each hike has a different natural history focus\, such as plants\, pollinators\, or birds\, and are led by Garden experts. \nPlants are the focus on the walk on Saturday\, June 24\, from 9 to 10 a.m. and is led by Denise Knapp\, Ph.D.\, the Garden’s Director of Conservation and Research\, and Annie Ayers\, Herbarium Technician. \nThe walks are the start of as part of a larger collaborative effort between the two partners and the public to transform a section of the Park from invasive to native plants and document the effects. Future walks are scheduled\, once a month\, through the end of 2023. No reservations are required. Meet at the parking lot adjacent to the park administration building. For more information\, visit www.SBBotanicGarden.org/calendar. \n“We invite the public to join us in recovering this portion of Elings Park so they can see first-hand the power of California’s native plants\,” says Dr. Knapp. “Ultimately\, through this experience\, we hope that our community will leave inspired and begin transformations in backyards and landscapes across SB County and beyond.” \nElings Park opened in 1985 as the result of a community campaign to turn the former landfill into a public park. First encompassing 90 acres\, the Park expanded to 230 acres in 1994 with the purchase of an adjacent property. \nApproximately 75% of Elings Park is undeveloped. Nine miles of trails traverse shady oak groves and sunny\, ocean-facing hillsides covered with chaparral. Nonnative plants\, which have encroached on the natural landscapes\, have been the target of the Park’s recent efforts at habitat restoration. Over the past two years\, more than 250 California native oaks have been planted\, plus hundreds of native grasses and shrubs. For the past three springs\, a flock of sheep have been brought in for eco-friendly weed removal and fire prevention. \n“While Elings Park is just steps away from thousands of residences\, portions of it are still surprisingly wild\,” says Dean Noble\, Elings Park executive director. “Many people who enjoy our athletic facilities and cultural events have never visited our scenic South Bluffs. With the expertise of Santa Barbara Botanic Garden\, we can transform that landscape and encourage the next generation of community scientists.” \n  \nFUTURE NATURE WALKS: \nSaturday\, July 15\, 9 to 10 a.m. – Pollinators\, led by Sarah Cusser\, Ph.D.\, the Garden’s Terrestrial Invertebrate Conservation Ecologist\, and Kylie Etter\, Conservation Technician \nSaturday\, August 19\, 9 to 10 a.m. – Invasive Plants\, led by Denise Knapp\, Ph.D.\, the Garden’s Director of Conservation and Research\, and Jorge Renteria Bustamante\, Ph.D.\, Applied Ecologist \nSaturday\, September 16\, 9 to 10 a.m. – Pollinators\, led by Sarah Cusser\, Ph.D.\, the Garden’s Terrestrial Invertebrate Conservation Ecologist\, and Kylie Etter\, Conservation Technician \nSaturday\, October 21\, 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. – Birds\, led by Scot Pipkin\, the Garden’s Director of Education\, and Zach Philips\, Ph.D.\, Terrestrial Invertebrate Conservation Ecologist \nSaturday\, November 18\, 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. – Plants and Bugs\, led by Zach Philips\, Ph.D.\, the Garden’s Terrestrial Invertebrate Conservation Ecologist\, and José Flores\, Conservation Technician \nSaturday\, December 16\, 9 to 10 a.m. – Birds\, led by Scot Pipkin\, the Garden’s Director of Education\, and Zach Philips\, Ph.D.\, Terrestrial Invertebrate Conservation Ecologist

SUMMARY:Online Public Forum on SB Botanic Garden and Elings Park Native Plant Project
DESCRIPTION:Public Forum on SB Botanic Garden and Elings Park Native Plant Project \nThe public is invited to learn about – and comment on – a new project by Santa Barbara Botanic Garden and Elings Park at a series of four public forums led by Denise Knapp\, Ph.D.\, the Garden’s director of conservation and research\, and Scot Pipkin\, their director of education. \nThe Landscape Transformation Project is a collaborative effort between the two partners and the public to transform an acre of the Park from invasive to entirely California-native plants and document the effects. \nOn Saturday\, August 19\, the meeting is held at Elings Park from 10:30 a.m. to noon. It follows the monthly Nature Walk\, held from 9 to 10 a.m. \nOn Tuesday\, September 5\, the meeting is held at Elings Park’s outdoor Godric Grove from 5:30 to 7 p.m. \nThe final meeting is on Wednesday\, September 13 at Garden’s Blaksley Library from 5:30 to 7 p.m. \n“Native plants lay the foundation that supports all life on Earth. Through the transformation at Elings Park\, we’ll be able to demonstrate\, through science\, the value of native plants and a healthy ecosystem\,” said Dr. Knapp. “We want the public not only to hear about what we hope to achieve but to weigh in on our plans. Later\, they’ll have a chance to get their hands dirty as we plant and tend to the plants.” \nThe project began with a Bioblitz on May 11 in which participants used the iNaturalist smartphone app to record birds\, bugs\, plants\, and more that they discovered at Elings Park’s South Bluffs. Several native California plant species identified on that day will be planted in the new area\, along with others\, including those suggested during the public meetings. \nOngoing monthly Nature Walks led by Garden experts explore the park’s biodiversity – and one of the public meetings is scheduled following the August 19 walk (see below). \nThe project’s one-acre location on the South Bluffs has been selected and staff and project volunteers will clear the plot of invasive plant species\, prepare the soil\, then plant and monitor the native species. Earlier this spring\, Garden staff began monitoring plants\, birds\, pollinators\, and other bugs and will be following up after planting to gather additional data on the site’s vitality. Data before and after the transformation will be compared\, and both will be compared to an adjacent invaded area. \nElings Park opened in 1985 as the result of a community campaign to turn the former landfill into a public park. First encompassing 90 acres\, the Park expanded to 230 acres in 1994 with the purchase of an adjacent property. Currently\, approximately 75% is undeveloped. \n“We’ve recently made a major push to bring native plants back to the Park. Over the past two years\, we’ve removed non-natives and planted over 250 California native oaks\, plus thousands of native grasses and shrubs\,” says Dean Noble\, Elings Park executive director. “This project concentrates natives in one area\, and powerfully demonstrates how this transformation can impact an entire ecosystem.” \nIt is a diverse landscape with recreation and natural ecosystems side by side. Nine miles of trails traverse shady oak groves and sunny\, ocean-facing hillsides covered with chaparral. Youth and adults enjoy league play in softball\, soccer\, rugby\, lacrosse\, and tennis. Special areas are dedicated to BMX racing\, hang gliding\, paragliding\, disc golf\, and remote-controlled cars and airplanes. It is also a popular location for weddings and special events.

DESCRIPTION:The public is invited to learn about – and comment on – a new project by Santa Barbara Botanic Garden and Elings Park at a series of four public forums led by Denise Knapp\, Ph.D.\, the Garden’s director of conservation and research\, and Scot Pipkin\, their director of education. \nThe Landscape Transformation Project is a collaborative effort between the two partners and the public to transform an acre of the Park from invasive to entirely California-native plants and document the effects. \nThe final meeting is on Wednesday September 13 at Garden’s Blaksley Library from 5:30 to 7 p.m. \n“Native plants lay the foundation that supports all life on Earth. Through the transformation at Elings Park\, we’ll be able to demonstrate\, through science\, the value of native plants and a healthy ecosystem\,” said Dr. Knapp. “We want the public not only to hear about what we hope to achieve but to weigh in on our plans. Later\, they’ll have a chance to get their hands dirty as we plant and tend to the plants.” \nThe project began with a Bioblitz on May 11 in which participants used the iNaturalist smartphone app to record birds\, bugs\, plants\, and more that they discovered at Elings Park’s South Bluffs. Several native California plant species identified on that day will be planted in the new area\, along with others\, including those suggested during the public meetings. \nOngoing monthly Nature Walks led by Garden experts explore the park’s biodiversity – and one of the public meetings is scheduled following the August 19 walk (see below). \nThe project’s one-acre location on the South Bluffs has been selected and staff and project volunteers will clear the plot of invasive plant species\, prepare the soil\, then plant and monitor the native species. Earlier this spring\, Garden staff began monitoring plants\, birds\, pollinators\, and other bugs and will be following up after planting to gather additional data on the site’s vitality. Data before and after the transformation will be compared\, and both will be compared to an adjacent invaded area. \nElings Park opened in 1985 as the result of a community campaign to turn the former landfill into a public park. First encompassing 90 acres\, the Park expanded to 230 acres in 1994 with the purchase of an adjacent property. Currently\, approximately 75% is undeveloped. \n“We’ve recently made a major push to bring native plants back to the Park. Over the past two years\, we’ve removed non-natives and planted over 250 California native oaks\, plus thousands of native grasses and shrubs\,” says Dean Noble\, Elings Park executive director. “This project concentrates natives in one area\, and powerfully demonstrates how this transformation can impact an entire ecosystem.” \nIt is a diverse landscape with recreation and natural ecosystems side by side. Nine miles of trails traverse shady oak groves and sunny\, ocean-facing hillsides covered with chaparral. Youth and adults enjoy league play in softball\, soccer\, rugby\, lacrosse\, and tennis. Special areas are dedicated to BMX racing\, hang gliding\, paragliding\, disc golf\, and remote-controlled cars and airplanes. It is also a popular location for weddings and special events. \n

SUMMARY:Clarence Mattei - Portrait of a Community: A talk by Erin Graffy about the artist
DESCRIPTION:Clarence Mattei – Portrait of a Community: A talk by Erin Graffy about the artist \nFor over forty years Clarence R. Mattei captured in pen and pencil\, charcoal\, and oil the portraits of notable figures on the local\, national\, and international stage. The artist had roots which went deep into the historical soil of Santa Barbara County. In 1886\, his father\, Felix Mattei\, founded Mattei’s Tavern\, in Los Olivos when the stagecoach was still the primary means of overland travel. Here Clarence grew up with his four brothers. \nAlthough Mattei moved comfortably in the sophisticated salons of Paris and in the drawing rooms of the privileged in New York City the pull of his rustic childhood home remained strong\, and he eventually returned to Santa Barbara. Here he became a key figure in the city’s burgeoning art colony. Erin Graffy draws her own portrait of this talented artist\, by utilizing private archives and interviews with family and friends. \nAbout the Speaker: Erin Graffy de Garcia is the author of a number of books and articles on the history and culture of the Santa Barbara area. \n—- \nWednesday\, September 13 \n5:30 – 7:00pm PDT \nSanta Barbara Historical Museum \n136 East de la Guerra St\, Santa Barbara\, CA 93101 \n  \nSBHM Members $10 \nNonmembers $15 \nStudents FREE \nEventbrite link to purchase tickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/clarence-mattei-portrait-of-a-community-tickets-701039246257?aff=oddtdtcreator

SUMMARY:Native Plant Volunteer Work Party at Elings Park
DESCRIPTION:Elings Park and Santa Barbara Botanic Garden’s Landscape Transformation Project breaks ground with the first Volunteer Restoration Work Party on Saturday\, September 16 from 10 a.m. to noon\, following the monthly Elings Park Nature Walks led by Garden experts from 9 to 10 a.m. These work parties will continue on the third Saturday of the month\, at least through Spring 2024\, and additional dates will be added. To register\, visit www.SBBotanicGarden.org/classes-events/landscape-transformation-project-volunteer-opportunities. \nThe project needs volunteers willing to get their hands dirty by controlling invasive plants and planting California-natives on a one-acre site on the Park’s South Bluff. The first phase of the project involves installing black plastic (and later\, cardboard) to discourage weeds. Earlier this spring\, Garden staff began monitoring plants\, birds\, pollinators\, and other bugs and will follow up after planting to gather additional data on the site’s vitality. The restoration project and science experiences concentrate California’s native plants in this area and will compare the abundance\, diversity\, and composition of plant and animal life both before and after the transformation. \nThe public can attend the final of four free Public Forums held on Wednesday\, September 13 from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in Santa Barbara Botanic Garden’s Blaksley Library. It is led by Dr. Knapp and Scot Pipkin\, the Garden’s director of education. The public will hear about the project\, offer input\, and find out how to get involved. \nDonations of clean\, wax-free\, cardboard are also needed to be used together with wood chips and mulch\, as eco-friendly “sheet mulching” to block sunlight and prevent weed seeds from germinating in the project site. Boxes must be broken down. Donations are now being accepted at the Elings Park Administration Building on weekdays between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. and at the Garden on Wednesday\, September 20 from 3 to 5 p.m.; Friday\, September 29 and Wednesday\, October 4 from 8 to 10 a.m.; and Friday\, October 13 from 3 to 5 p.m. \nThe series of free Nature Walks at Elings Park led by Garden experts continues through December 2023. Each hike has a different natural history focus\, such as plants\, pollinators\, or birds. Walkers meet at the Elings Park Office parking lot.  Visit www.SBBotanicGarden.org/calendar. \nSaturday\, September 16\, 9 to 10 a.m. – Pollinators: Led by Sarah Cusser\, Ph.D.\, the Garden’s terrestrial invertebrate conservation ecologist\, and Kylie Etter\, conservation technician. \nSaturday\, October 21\, 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. – Birds: Led by Scot Pipkin\, the Garden’s director of education\, and Zach Philips\, Ph.D.\, terrestrial invertebrate conservation ecologist \nSaturday\, November 18\, 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. – Plants and Bugs: Led by Zach Philips\, Ph.D.\, the Garden’s terrestrial invertebrate conservation ecologist\, and José Flores\, conservation technician \nSaturday\, December 16\, 9 to 10 a.m. – Birds: Led by Scot Pipkin\, the Garden’s director of education\, and Zach Philips\, Ph.D.\, terrestrial invertebrate conservation ecologist
