Montini Walk with Local Biologist: Explore Plant Communities
Join Sonoma Ecology Center, in partnership with Sonoma County Ag + Open Space, to explore the different plant communities in Montini Open Space Preserve with us! This walk will be led by retired field botanist Greg Perrier. The walk will include discussion of management concerns, and the factors that control the distribution of the community within the preserve. On this hike, you will see the emergence of the herbaceous vegetation and how it varies by site. Hikers will also examine the return of vegetation to areas that burned during the June 2025 prescribed burn, conducted by Sonoma Valley Fire District in collaboration with Sonoma Ecology Center.
