Volunteer Workday: Greensboro Ridge

June 24, 2026

Join us on Saturday, July 25 for a volunteer workday at Greensboro Ridge! Together we’ll work to clear small shrubs and brush from the property’s habitat clearings. These open gaps in the forest canopy create valuable edge habitat enjoyed by a variety of native species. Tools and work gloves will be provided (but feel free to bring your own gloves/loppers/handsaws). For more information and to RSVP, email savannah@hanoverconservancy.org.

Meet at the trailhead at the top of Velvet Rocks Drive (google maps link) at 9 AM. Hope to see you there!
