Yolo Basin Foundation’s public wetland tours have recently gone virtual. Once a month, join us through Zoom for a tour of the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area or City of Davis wetlands. Learn something new and different each month about our local wetlands, wildlife and current conservation topics. Registration is free and limited to 60 devices per virtual tour.
Yolo Basin Foundation is now offering virtual Vernal Pool Tours of the restored vernal pool habitats onsite of Grasslands Regional Park. These areas are protected and off limits to the public due to the various plants and animals present retaining an endangered or threatened status. Explore these crucial, incredible habitats with Yolo Basin Foundation staff and volunteers through a virtual experience. Discover how vernal pools are naturally created, restored, and special. Zoom in more closely to view amazing wildflowers and small creatures that call the vernal pools home.
The vernal pool virtual tours are supported through a partnership with Yolo County and funded by a California Department of Parks and Recreation grant. Registration is free for all tours and limited to 60 devices per virtual tour. Donations are welcome and very much appreciated.
