Since 1999, hundreds of children, representing various schools and youth organizations, have participated in guided walking tours of Santa Margarita's community forest. We call these walking~learning tours “Field Trips to the Forest” and we are grateful to the California ReLeaf 2000 Capacity-Building Grant Program for supporting the 2000 tours. Students have especially enjoyed learning about the “owl oak,” a magnificent valley oak that is home to many wild animals, including a barn owl.
