Name: Restore Habitat in Cebolla Canyon of El Malpais!
Start: 2025-10-03T17:00:00-06:00

Location: Cebolla Canyon

• What we'll do
Join AWF for a weekend restoration project at one of our longest legacy sites, Cebolla Canyon in El Malpais National Monument!

The Project: Our work will focus on hand-building rock structures designed to allow water to infiltrate more gradually into the landscape and prevent down-cutting and gully formation. AWF has organized restoration projects at Cebolla Canyon just about every year for the past 20+ years, and our work has successfully expanded the size of the wetlands around Cebolla Spring from 7 acres to over 40, providing critical wildlife habitat in an arid region. For photos of past Cebolla projects, see: http://abq.nmwildlife.org/cebolla-canyon-gallery.html

Schedule: Friday, October 3 – Sunday, October 5

We will meet at the campsite on Friday evening. On Saturday morning, AWF will provide coffee, breakfast burritos, and an orientation. We will work Saturday from about 8:30-4:00, and then enjoy a potluck dinner (AWF provides bison or veggie burgers). On Sunday, anyone who is able to stay will work for a few more hours, and we will finish up by noon.

Please note that volunteers do not need to be present for the entire weekend to participate. You are welcome to join us just for the work day Saturday, or camp for just one of the two nights.

• What to bring
GEAR: Bring everything you need for a weekend of camping. For the work, don’t forget gloves, hat, long sleeves, long pants, sturdy boots, and sunscreen. Warm clothes for the evenings and plenty of water are essential.

FOOD: AWF will provide breakfast burritos on Saturday morning and bison or veggie burgers as part of a potluck meal on Saturday evening. Please bring lots of water, your own food for Friday, and something for the potluck dinner on Saturday (side, salad, or dessert).

• Important to know
To RSVP, please email abqwildlifefederation@gmail.com, and please include a phone number or email contact information so we can update you if anything changes (e.g., weather cancellation). When you RSVP, we will send you directions to the campsite and more information about the project.
