About the Event
Celebrate National Volunteer Week and Earth Day with the Land Trust, and embrace this year’s Earth Day theme, Our Power, Our Planet! Meet us under a tent in the field at Jeans Land for refreshments and a chance to connect with some of our amazing volunteers. Executive Director Jane Gruba-Chevalier and Manager of Land Stewardship Alexi Dart-Padover will share updates on our volunteer programs and plans for the upcoming stewardship season.
Then, put your power into action with an Earth Day Weed Warrior activity at our Upper Spencer Brook Valley property: help remove invasive buckthorn and spread seed bombs made by volunteers this winter.
Come for part of the event or stay for the full experience. Either way, it’s a fun way to get outside, connect with nature, and make a difference in our local habitats on Earth Day!
