Our land is described by the Los Angeles County Planning Department as H2 habitat, denoting particular ecological value and high instances of biodiversity, with restrictions in place for development so as not to disturb natural resources without significant mitigation and restoration efforts. To date we have recorded over 100 species of native plants and wildlife, some of which are classified under various county, state, and federal frameworks, and codified as threatened, rare, or endangered.
This land burned in the catastrophic Woolsey Fire of 2018. It acts as a climate observatory uniquely positioned to study relationships between fire, ecology, design, and community.
We welcome scientists, artists, indigenous partners and land managers focused on this habitat to propose collaborations which further understanding and protection of this unique ecological heritage.
