Help Participate in the California All-Taxa Biodiversity Inventory (CalATBI) by collecting soil samples from your own backyard!

California is one of only 36 biodiversity hotspots on planet Earth. The immense scale of California’s diversity means much of it remains unexplored, with thousands of species yet to be discovered. CalATBI is a specimen-based, DNA-powered effort to finally discover all of California’s biodiversity.

CalATBI efforts include conducting field work to find unexplored biodiversity, sequencing millions of specimens to build a DNA barcode reference library, developing next-generation technologies to accelerate discovery, and preserving biodiversity specimens and samples for the benefit of future generations.

Our goal is to save our precious biodiversity today, for tomorrow and always.

You can help by participating in our North Coast BioBlitz September 22nd through October 10th.
We are particularly interested in collecting soil samples from natural areas with native plant cover. Does that sound like your backyard or other private land you have access to with landowner permission? If so, please visit our to sign up!

Visit the McKinleyville Farmers' Market to purchase the freshest farm goods, all non-GMO and grown in Humboldt County. 

​This market has a huge variety of locally grown produce, decorative and edible plants, and locally caught fish.

Vendors come from around the county to bring their bounty to McKinleyville.  Warm weather crops like peaches, tomatoes, and peppers come from as far as Petrolia and Willow Creek, and our own McKinleyville farmers bring coastal favorites like kale and potatoes.  We also have a great selection of decorative plants, like succulents and begonias, and edibles like blueberries, figs, and currants.

Hungry? There's a barbecue truck located IN market just for your convenience! Or, snack on a basket of strawberries or figs as you enjoy the local musicians and spending time with your neighbors.

We are located in the parking lot of the Eureka Natural Foods McKinleyville location, so parking is never an issue and your car is close by to load full of your favorite goodies from the market.  PLUS, make sure to stop in Eureka Natural Foods for whatever else you need to complete your shopping list!
