Ready to roll up your sleeves? Join us for a community-powered ecological restoration project!
We need your help restoring about 3 acres of farmland by removing undesirable plants and replanting with desirable native plants that produce food for people, forage for our livestock, and high quality habitat for beneficial wildlife like native pollinators and birds.
You are invited to join our farmers and your neighbors at the Glynwood Center for Regional Food and Farming on Saturday, July 8th and Friday, July 14th for a community-based workday at our farm near Cold Spring, NY.
Your time with us will include training, collaborative planning, and two hours of field work in the morning (10am - 12pm), or early afternoon (1pm - 3pm). If you want a longer workday, feel free to sign up for both shifts. All tools and safety equipment will be provided, in addition to water and snacks. You should bring closed-toed boots, sun protection, long pants, extra food as you require, and smiles!
Volunteers will need to be able to perform physical outdoor work in warm weather, use hand tools to cut plants, dig in the dirt, and work collaboratively.
