California Conservation Corps Supporting San Bernardino Mountains Restoration

California Conservation Corps

The California Conservation Corps (CCC), in collaboration with CAL FIRE, American Forests, and the Mojave Desert Resource Conservation District, helped plant 70,000 seedlings in the San Bernardino Mountains. Supported by $200,000 in California Climate Investments funding, the project’s goal was to re-plant an area in and around the Eaton Scout Reservation in Cedar Glen. The project is the result of interagency coordination and collaboration and helped invest in Corpsmembers from underserved areas by providing information about tree planting and reforestation and providing them with experience in the mountains to help cultivate interests in forest health.
