PLEASE NOTE TIMES HAVE CHANGED DUE TO WEATHER

1:00 – 4:00 pm
We have 615 trees to plant — We need YOUR help! Bring your friends and plant for an hour or the entire afternoon – whatever time you can spare.
Join volunteers and staff from Scenic Hudson and the Greene Land Trust to plant trees at the Mawignack Preserve on Friday from 10am – noon and/or Sunday from 1-4pm.
This tree planting activity is part of a phased effort to reforest an area of the Mawignack Preserve that lies within the 100-year flood plain of the Catskill Creek. The Mawignack reforestation effort matters because forested floodplains provide rich habitat for a variety of species, and also effectively store flood waters, reducing flood damage downstream.
If you have a group that may be interested in helping or if you have questions, please send an email to steward@greenelandtrust.org.
If you would like to help, please dress appropriately for the weather and bring work gloves. If inclement weather leads to postponement / cancellation, we will send an email the evening prior to the event.
Thank you!
