Our Intern Akira’s journey with Grassroots Ecology began in his early teens. Learn more about what kept him coming back over the last 6 years: as a Youth Steward in high school, a Naturalist Intern last summer, and as a current Habitat Restoration Intern.

Have you been to Byrne Preserve lately? If you have, you may have noticed the many butterflies at the preserve. John Metcalfe, a recent graduate of our California Naturalist program, has created a guide for identifying these important pollinators in a very localized and easy to use way.
