Virtual PORTS Programs
Sign up for the "Rooted in Survival: Unveiling the Resilient World of Coast Redwoods" PORTS program to dive into the importance of adaptations and how they have helped the Coast Redwoods survive and thrive since prehistoric times.
Sign up for the “Salmon and Sediment: Fueling the Redwoods” PORT program and join a State Park Interpreter for a deep dive into the connection between the old-growth redwood forest and the Pacific Ocean. Be surprised by the species and processes that link the two ecosystems. Whether it’s salmon or sediment, their journey will show us how connected these locations are!
