Come help us keep our pollinator garden thriving! We'll be spending the afternoon weeding around wildflowers at the Island Preserve Steeplechase Trailhead. It’s a great way to support native plants and the bees, butterflies, and other pollinators that depend on them.
What to Expect
This is a green level (low intensity) event, so it's a great option if you're looking for a more relaxed volunteer outing. We'll be working right near the parking lot, using wheelbarrows and hand forks and doing some good old-fashioned hands-and-knees weeding to clear out unwanted growth from around the wildflowers.
What to Wear & Bring
Closed-toe shoes, long pants, and clothes you don't mind getting dirty. Gloves will be provided, but feel free to bring your own pair if you prefer. Check the forecast before you head out — you may want to pack sunscreen and a hat, or a rain jacket depending on the day!
Getting There
Island Preserve Steeplechase Trailhead is located at 82 Steeplechase, Geneseo, NY 14454. Limited street parking is available.
