The Claremont Canyon Conservancy provides stewardship and educational programs to its members and the public regarding the 500-acre (2.0 km2), mostly wildland, Claremont Canyon at the Oakland/Berkeley border in Northern California. The conservancy grew out of a citizen-based task force formed after the 1991 Oakland Berkeley Firestorm. Over 500 member-households support the conservancy, as of 2021. The conservancy works closely and cooperatively with multiple public landowners in Claremont Canyon including the East Bay Regional Park District, the University of California, and the City of Oakland, receiving grants and partnering in stewardship of the canyon.

  • The Claremont Canyon Conservancy provides stewardship and educational programs to its members and the public regarding the 500-acre (2.0 km2), mostly wildland, Claremont Canyon at the Oakland/Berkeley border in Northern California. The conservancy grew out of a citizen-based task force formed after the 1991 Oakland Berkeley Firestorm. Over 500 member-households support the conservancy, as of 2021. The conservancy works closely and cooperatively with multiple public landowners in Claremont Canyon including the East Bay Regional Park District, the University of California, and the City of Oakland, receiving grants and partnering in stewardship of the canyon. The organization, a California nonprofit 501(c)(3), provides hands-on, volunteer programs, including reforestation of coastal redwoods native to the East Bay Hills in areas of the canyon where eucalyptus (E. globulus) stands were removed for wildfire hazard mitigation. "Redwood trees are a powerful, emotional symbol of coastal California," said Joe Engbeck, vice president of the Claremont Canyon Conservancy in 2008 and the man who organized the effort. "We can't bring the redwoods back everywhere in this urban area, but we can transform (part of) this canyon." They also sponsor free nature walks from time to time on a variety of subjects. (en)
