Greening the Greenway: Ohlone Greenway Hike

In the early 1990s El Cerrito’s two mile stretch of the Ohlone Greenway had exactly one tree–until someone cut it down. For the verdant landscape we have there today, thanks must go to volunteers, a city contract arborist, and a dedicated city official and staff. Let’s walk the Greenway while hearing from Steve Price, organizer and lead volunteer, and Steve Batchelder, then the city’s consulting arborist. Every block along the Greenway has its own story – including the mysterious Dinosaur Forest. Meet for this free tour at the Ohlone Greenway at Fairmount Avenue, across from El Cerrito Plaza BART Station. NOTE: This flat, two-mile walk ends at Del Norte BART station.
