Madrona Marsh Habitat Restoration



Each year, American Honda associates volunteer their time and services to the city of Torrance to help in the preservation and restoration of the Madrona Marsh Preserve. Located in the Torrance, California, area, the Marsh is home to a number of rare plants and animals. It is the last vernal wetland (wet in the winter and dry in the summer) located in the Los Angeles Basin.
 
During Habitat Restoration Day, volunteers work to restore the Marsh's natural habitat, land and water systems. Honda associates help by planting, weeding, collecting and growing seeds and removing waste from the area. They also assist by helping to remove debris resulting from decades of oil extraction processes.



Established in 1986, the 42-acre Madrona Marsh Preserve is maintained by the City of Torrance with the help of the nonprofit organization Friends of the Madrona Marsh.
