I would strongly urge you to not forward stuff from John S. He is an incredible asshole to students and women and really anyone who doesn’t appear to worship him and his work.

Dear Jeff and Students

You are cordially invited to attend the launch the Waterman Restoration Interpretive Site on Saturday October 22 2022, 830 to 10am.
There will also be public guided tours of the site on Saturday-Sunday September 24 and 25 starting at 8am.
For the tours please rsvp to tucsonaznps at gmail.com<mailto:tucsonaznps at gmail.com>
Directions :
Drive exactly 19 miles west of I-10 on Avra Valley Road
Turn left immediately after the Pioneer sign on your left.
Drive one mile bearing left the whole way.

The Waterman Restoration site is on BLM land on the northern bajada of the Waterman Mountains on Ironwood Forest National Monument.
In the early 2000s this disturbed site had become an 18-acre buffelgrass monoculture known locally as “the Mother of all Buffelgrass patches”.

After 12 years of focused restoration efforts including :

  *   Multiple-year spot spray buffelgrass control
  *   Hand seeding of desert trees
  *   Construction of water harvesting features
  *   Generous amendment of tree branch mulch
  *   Over 7000 volunteer hours

This site is now a restored upland Saguaro-Palo Verde landscape with over 110 native plant species and fewer than 150 buffelgrass  plants still emerging per year.
