Forest Restoration Project on Eakin Road

Saturday, November 2, 10am-12noon, 2180 Eakin Rd.

Help us plant 200 trees!

This land has historically been used as an illegal dump site; during March, volunteers went in and removed 1.5 tons of trash! Now, we will focus on planting beneficial trees. In the rear portion of the property, there is a wetland that serves as a resting area for waterfowl along a fly-over migratory route. This site is in poor shape and requires a tremendous amount of attention. The goal is to, over time, create a vibrant space for wildlife to thrive.

Please dress appropriately, dress in layers, and prepare for inclement weather, wear toe-covering boots/shoes, and/or items you don’t mind getting dirty. Work gloves will be provided, but please bring a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated. Water and snacks will be provided.
