Join us to support the Natural Reserve System during Give Day 2026
The UC Davis Natural Reserves, with their awe-inspiring coastal tidepools, vibrant blue oak forests, delicate vernal pools, and dramatic volcanic landscapes, are much more than beautiful natural settings—they are essential living laboratories and outdoor classrooms where solutions to California’s and the world's greatest environmental challenges are discovered.
As these ecosystems face urgent threats from habitat degradation, climate stress, and declining biodiversity, the reserves stand at the forefront of agile, interdisciplinary research, teaching, and outreach.
By supporting the UC Davis Natural Reserves during Give Day, your donation directly contributes to experiential learning, vital on-site research, and transformative conservation efforts that help preserve California’s remarkable natural heritage for generations to come.
