We’ve been making great progress, and every work party makes a visible difference. It’s incredibly satisfying to watch the tracks reappear from under years of overgrowth.
No experience needed — just bring:
Gloves
Sturdy shoes
Safety Glasses
Garden Tools, if you have them or borrow some of ours
A willingness to enjoy some sunshine while doing something good for the community
Bonus points if you bring a friend!
Come for a bit or stay awhile — it all helps.
Hope to see you on the line! đźš‚
