River Restoration

Join our community effort to restore Tanque Verde Creek! We invite people of all ages, diverse ethnic and racial backgrounds, beliefs, and many other diverse communities to participate in restoring our heritage of seasonal and year-round water flows. Come work with WMG staff and other River Run Network volunteers at these 2 - 4 hour workshops in a beautiful riparian area to remove this invasive species and contribute to the restoration of surface flows and the riparian forest.

Our creeks and arroyos are the lifeline to our rivers; they flow through our city and into the Santa Cruz River. Many of these waterways are filled with trash, which is carried into our rivers downstream through large rain and flood events. Through this event, we invite you to sift through a local waterway (Arroyo Chico) in search of trash. As you pick up the trash, you not only help you and your neighbors, but the whole of Tucson to be a cleaner place!

Help beautify our rivers by picking up trash + removing invasive species

We’re focusing on areas along our creeks where trash has collected and small patches of invasive Arundo have been spotted—and we need your help to clean it up and protect our waterways. This event will center around trash pickup and beautification efforts, making this vital community space cleaner, safer, and more enjoyable for people, wildlife, and future creek restoration projects. We'll also target a few small stands of Arundo to stop its spread.
