Corte Madera Wilds
Lagoon Enhancement
Town Park, Corte Madera

Habitat enhancement is underway!

The holding pond in Town Park, Corte Madera, also known as Pixley Lagoon, is more than just a body of water. It’s a lifeline for local wildlife and a gateway to the San Francisco Bay.

Over decades, invasive plants and altered landscapes have diminished its natural ability to support thriving ecosystems, filter pollutants, and sustain waterfowl and migratory birds.

Making way for wildlife

We’ve launched a habitat enhancement project to encourage more wildlife to this special area using California native plants.

Our goal is to rejuvenate the lagoon's border transforming it into a haven for biodiversity by replacing invasive species with salt tolerant native plants that support a variety of wildlife.

We aim to create a healthier watershed and a flourishing habitat for fish, waterfowl, songbirds, migratory birds, and many pollinators.

Check out the new plantings!

Native plants are now in place, poised to create new wildlife habitat this spring.
