About this Event
This Saturday 10AM - 1PM volunteer event will a continuation of our past "Trees for Tributaries" projects at this same site, again focusing on planting native trees and shrubs (and removing some invasive species) along the banks of the Sawmill River to protect its ecosystem and prevent erosion and flooding.
The event will be held in Dobbs Ferry's Chauncey Park, which sits along the Sawmill River adjacent to the Chauncey Square shopping area and The Danforth apartment complex. The Dobbs Ferry Conservation Advisory Board is proud to again be cooperating in with Groundwork Hudson Valley (the local environmental activity organization) and the NY State Department of Environmental Conservation.
Volunteers will use shovels and other tools to clear invasive species, dig holes and plant native species along the riverbank.
Volunteers should wear long pants and long sleeves, sturdy shoes, work gloves and bug spray. Shovels and other tools will be available, but if any volunteers can bring additional ones they would be very welcome!
