Because the beaver isn't just an animal; it's an ecosystem!

Pesticide Petition


Susan JunFish, of Parents for a Safer Environment, sends this request which I’m sure beaver supporters can get behind. Remember that Contra Costa is one of the last counties to use chemicals to control plants along the creek, and all that toxicity seeps into the soil and into the runoff and down stream into our beavers. Sign her petition to help.

Hi Folks:  If you live within or visit Contra Costa County:
