Amigos de los Rios formed an “Equipo del Oasis – Oasis Team” of local residents to: learn about riparian ecosystems, train in riparian habitat restoration, and organize “Conozca a su Vecino Natural Know Your Natural Neighbor” community clean up and planting days to initiate restoration at the confluence of Alhambra Wash and the Rio Hondo.
