Rim Fire Recovery Volunteers Needed - mymotherlode.com

Sonora, CA — You can pitch in by pulling weeds in the burned out areas of the Rim Fire.
It is an all-day event on May 24 in the Mi-Wok Ranger District of Stanislaus National Forest. District Botanist Margaret Willits will be leading the eradication project starting at 8:30 am and ending at 3:30 pm.
