Volunteer Workday at Rambler Trust

Join us as we work on invasive plant removal as part of a comprehensive eco-restoration program for the Rambler Trust. We will be using hand tools to remove invasive shrubs and weeds. This work directly contributes to restoring native ecology and protecting regional biodiversity. This 70-acre property is owned by the Rambler Trust and managed by Lancaster Conservancy. Restoring native ecology is critically important to this unique parcel in the federally designated Highlands region, which stretches from Pennsylvania through Connecticut.

Please Note: This property owned by the Rambler Trust is not open for public access or recreation.
