About Miramar Vernal Pool Preserve:
Our chapter has been designated as stewards of the 9 acre Miramar Vernal Pool Preserve. Your donation will support Phase II “Take Down the Dirty Dozen” project. Twelve eucalyptus trees suppressing the vernal pools' ecosystem will be removed and replaced with California native trees allowing this ecosystem to return to its original glory. https://chapters.cnps.org/sandiego/miramar-vernal-pool-preserve/
