Volunteers are needed to help plant 50-70 trees to create a buffer along Antietam Creek near the PA border. At the start of the event, a planting demonstration and instructions will be provided by the MD-DNR Forester. Then we will be digging the holes, planting the trees, staking and adding tree protection.
Minors may attend with an adult. This event is eligible for SSL hours. WCPS students, please remember to bring your card for signature.
We will have tools, gloves, and other volunteer supplies.
Please wear sturdy shoes and bring a refillable water bottle.
Don't forget the sunscreen and bug spray, just in case you need it.
The farm straddles the PA & MD border and we will be working on the MD side, closer to Leitersburg, MD. Please sign up for exact meeting location and for event updates here: https://forms.gle/Mu7DUL7RHgNecQBA7
