MARTINEZ SHORELINE PARK

We haven't had a wildflower write-up since the first of December. Most of that is due to the lack of flowers... which is somewhat normal for winter. Add to that a rainfall of less than half of what we normally get, and you get fewer flowers yet. Of those few we did find, there were even fewer that were
worth reporting on so the noteworthy flowers dropped to almost nothing. On the other hand, the hiking weather has been great!
See our Park page for more information.
