AI Contract Overview

The On Farms Hedgerows project, managed by the Yolo County Resource Conservation District, involves the installation of 3,850 feet of native plant hedgerows bordering orchard fields at 15410 CA Hwy 16 in Capay, California. The project aims to create beneficial habitat, forage, and shelter for native wildlife and pollinators, including the Crotch's bumblebee, in a predominantly agricultural area. The installation will utilize native trees, shrubs, and herbaceous flowering plants, which will be planted by hand using shovels to ensure minimal ground disturbance. The project is phased over two planting seasons, with 630 feet to be installed by community volunteers and approximately 1,870 feet planted by local high school students during the 2025-2026 season, followed by the remaining footage in the 2026-2027 season. Implementation is scheduled for the fall or winter months. The project has been granted a Class 33 Categorical Exemption under CEQA Guidelines as a small habitat restoration project under 5 acres, with no expected negative impacts on special status plants or wildlife. Administrative oversight is provided by Executive Director Heather Nichols.

Full Description

This hedgerow project includes 3,850 feet of hedgerow bordering orchard fields. In the 2025-2026 planting season, 630 feet of hedgerow will be installed by community volunteers and approximately 1,870 ft will be planted with the help of local high school students. The remaining feet of hedgerow will likely be planted in the 2026-2027 planting season. The native plant hedgerows will consist of trees and shrubs with pods of herbaceous flowering plants. The locally appropriate, native plant species provide floral resources, forage, and cover for wildlife and native pollinators. The Yolo County RCD conducted a biological review which determined that the site is located within range for Crotch's bumblebee (Bombus crotch ii). Numerous other species are documented within close proximity to the site but will not be negatively impacted by the project as it will involve minimal ground disturbance and implementation of beneficial habitat. Container plants will be installed by hand using shovels to dig the holes for planting. Implementation of this hedgerow is expected to occur during the fall or winter season and will not impact special status plants or wildlife. The goal of the hedgerow is to create beneficial habitat for native species of wildlife and pollinators by providing floral resources, forage, and shelter in an area that is predominately agricultural lands.
