Healing Ceremony On Bypass Site

On Saturday, Caltrans and the CHP allowed over a hundred protesters to enter the Willits Bypass construction site to conduct a healing ceremony. Julia "Butterfly" Hill was among those who crossed the 101 and entered the site that used to be wetlands before being destroyed by Caltrans.

Julia Butterfly to Speak at Oct. 12 Rally in Willits

Activist Julia Butterfly Hill, whose 738-day tree sit in the roughly 1,500-year-old redwood tree Luna in the late-1990s made her an icon of eco-defense struggles, will speak at the Coalition to Save Little Lake Valley’s October 12th “Take A Stand For the Willits Wetlands!” event.

The event begins at 12 noon. Gather at Recreation Grove (E. Commercial and S. Lenore) to carpool, shuttle, or bike en masse to the festivities.
