Honeysuckle Hack and Invasive Removal at Greensfelder Park

We’re excited to invite you to this opportunity to help beautify Greensfelder Park. Together, we’ll be clearing invasive honeysuckle from the woods near the Dogwood Shelter and trail.

WHERE: Greensfelder Park - Dogwood Shelter on Hencken Road.

WHEN: Sunday, November 16 from 9am to 12pm. Volunteer check-in will begin at 8:45am.
