Conservancy land stewardship on the Preserve is as dynamic as the landscape. We face numerous challenges from invasive weeds and the SOD pathogen, and incorporate defense against proliferation of these threats in our management practices. We further promote our native species with restrictions and approvals of vegetation planted on the Preserve. Our prohibited plant list is a guide to promote native species and discourage aggressive invasive plants and we have identified California native grass mixes that help preserve the genetic composition of our grasslands.
