City of Forest Day: Volunteer Project

9:30 – 11am, start­ing at the Play Area near Liggett Terrace. Join the Trust for Gov­er­nors Island Hor­ti­cul­ture team for a vol­unteer project to direct­ly stew­ard the Island’s trees! With over 120 acres of open space, we rely on vol­un­teers to help care for the land­scapes on Gov­er­nors Island. Vol­un­teers will pro­mote root health and sup­port our urban for­est through mulching, weed­ing, and rak­ing projects through­out the Island. Reg­is­tra­tion is high­ly encour­aged to attend. Please wear appro­pri­ate cloth­ing for a vol­un­teer project. Tools and gloves will be provided.
