With great excitement and anticipation, the Coastside Land Trust is gearing up for this school year’s Junior Land Stewards Program. Members of our Board of Directors and Stewardship Advisory Committee have joined Haley Peterson ( Junior Land Stewards Program manager) to weed the Wavecrest JLS plots in preparation for this year’s program and students.
The mission of the Junior Land Stewards program is to connect the students of Cabrillo Unified School District with their local open spaces, and guide them in developing the environmental literacy skills and desire to become life-long stewards of open space. This project features three integrated components:
Field work and stewardship in the local coastal prairie. This field work is facilitated by the Half Moon Bay High School Science students.
Weekly hands-on science lessons and journaling
A culminating celebration in which student stewardship and learning is celebrated and shared with the public.
