Anheuser-Busch Fairfield Brewery Employees Pitch in to Save San Francisco
Bay
Employees from the Anheuser-Busch Fairfield brewery recently joined one of the company's environmental partners, Restore America's Estuaries, and Save the Bay, a community-based organization dedicated to keeping San Francisco Bay safe and clean, in a habitat restoration project at the Martin Luther King, Jr. Regional Shoreline in Oakland, Calif.
More than 40 employees brought their families and friends to help restore the Bay and to improve the natural habitat for invertebrates, birds and other wildlife.
One focus of the day's activities was removal of an invasive non-native plant that is supplanting larger native species in local marsh areas. This project is important because these wetlands provide a home for many species, including the endangered California Clapper Rail bird and bat rays, marine mammals, and salmon. Fairfield volunteers filled 110 large yard waste bags with the invasive species.
This project is one of numerous environmental activities conducted by employees at the Fairfield brewery in the communities surrounding the brewery. In September, employees volunteered for the California Coast & Creek Cleanup in Suisun, Calif. The Fairfield brewery is already making plans to participate in another cleanup with Save the Bay in the future.
