The Save the Bay habitat restoration team grows 30-40,000 native plants every year to restore tidal marsh around the Bay Area with two nurseries where the magic happens. Join us for a virtual behind-the-scenes tour of our nurseries and take a look at the life cycle of one of our native tidal marsh species. Then, we will take you on a virtual tour of the shoreline and see these native plants in action providing habitat, filtering water, and protecting our shorelines from sea level rise.

Attendees will leave with an understanding and appreciation for the ecosystem services that humans and wildlife receive from tidal marsh wetlands and the restoration work that Save The Bay, and other organizations, are doing to restore this vital habitat.

Event Hosts

Save The Bay has been protecting, restoring, and celebrating the San Francisco Bay for over 60 years. We work to promote Bay Smart policies, actively restore wetlands throughout the Bay Area, and educate the public.

COVID Safety

The Bay Area Science Festival will manage all in-person events with the health, safety and well-being of our staff, volunteers, hosts, exhibitors, and guests in mind. In response to COVID-19, we will be implementing public health requirements for all event hosts and attendees in accordance with local and state guidelines in order to celebrate science safely throughout the Bay Area. 

The Bay Area Science Festival encourages you to get vaccinated, wear a mask and practice social distancing. Be sure to check back for updated and more detailed COVID safety information prior to attending.
