Harold Richardson Redwoods Reserve is home to a wide variety of wildlife species, including the red-bellied newt.

 
For over a hundred years, Save the Redwoods League has been working to preserve old growth forests from southern Monterey County to the Oregon border. Host Michelle Marques talks with Jeff Stump, Director of Land Protection, about their new land acquisition in Sonoma County. Jeff shares details about the Harold Richardson Redwood Reserve, its expansion by 200 acres, and the League's efforts to open it to the public. Learn about the unique characteristics of coast redwoods, the diverse wildlife found in the reserve, and the League's collaboration with the Kashia Band of Pomo Indians. We also discuss the importance of old-growth forests in climate adaptation and the scientific research being conducted at the reserve.
