Yesterday, the Laguna Canyon Foundation treated their volunteers to a field trip to Camp Pendleton. While out of the boundaries of Orange County, Camp Pendleton shares the same plants and ecosystems with the OC, as well as the same environmental challenges.
The highlight for me was to see a Native American rock site - visit NIOC's website page on the Native Americans in Orange County for photos and more information.
Right before lunch, we passed by a sea of tomatoes - most of which were ripe/over ripe and rotting on the vines... I do hope that these tomatoes will be collected soon and put in the markets... it would be such a waste, otherwise! Can you fathom how many tomatoes were out there???!!! and right by the 5 freeway!
Lastly, if you've got a few minutes to spare, check us out on Facebook and become our FAN: Nature In Orange County's Facebook Page. Thanks!
