Join us each week to work on a variety of farm related seasonal tasks at Mill Ridge Park to include: planting, weeding, and mulching of the community orchard, gardens, and pumpkin patch; park beautification, farmhouse repairs, etc. Accessing gardens may entail walking in tall grass. Dress for appropriate weather conditions and uneven brushy terrain. Gloves, equipment, and refreshments will be provided onsite.

Help us expand and improve the trail system at Mill Ridge Park! Volunteers will cover up to 3 miles while creating and improving primitive trails at Mill Ridge Park. Activities involve hiking, bending, lifting, and the use of hand tools, and include: planning, measuring, mapping, and marking primitive trails; picking up and removing litter and debris from the trails; performing brushing activities with loppers, pruners, and W**d wrenches; and moving downed trees and branches from trail to maintain proper corridor and prevent shortcutting.
Volunteers for this activity should dress for weather conditions. Parts of the trail system could be muddy and/or wet. We recommend pants and shoes with adequate tread suitable for outdoor activity on rough, uneven terrain.
