Restoration at William Harding Nature Trail
December 1st, 2019
Ever wonder how the home of America cinema got its name? We can thank that to a little shrub called the Toyon. Toyon was mistaken for a bush called Christmas Holly. Ahem, Hollywood. Toyon, a native plant of western California is growing all over Hollywood and Irvine Regional Park in the city of Orange. A small team of Deutsche Bank employees participated in the OC Habitats restoration at William Harding nature trail on December 1st, 2019.
Sunday morning. 8am, team DB was there. Along with 20 volunteers and 2 park rangers, we pulled weeds, dug holes, and cleaned up the trail. The work was hard, but very satisfying. The trail looked magnificent! The park rangers told us about the holly story and about wild mustard greens growing in the area, an invasive plant that terrorizes the ecosystem. The rangers were very knowledgeable and shared lots of information with us.
Thank you Alice for putting together this great event! It was fun to learn about Hollywood and to learn I have been eating invasive weeds otherwise known as mustard weed.
