Thursday Volunteer Service Day

Thursday, November 14, 2024 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Meeting at the Rex Avenue Bridge on Forbidden Drive

This location will require hiking up to .6 miles to access from the available parking areas.
Please note that there will not be bathroom access during the service day.

Would you like to be part of keeping Wissahickon Valley Park beautiful and sustainable? Then join us as we give our plantings some water and love!

All are welcome to attend, and no experience is needed. We encourage attendees to work within their own comfort level, and we always strive to accommodate needs on an individual basis. With that being said, this service day may include the following activities:
• Plantings: bending over, crouching/squatting, carrying up to 20 lbs
• Invasive plant removal: bending over, using long handled tools
• Litter clean-up
• Repetitive motions

We provide gloves, tools, and instruction–you just need to show up! Be sure to wear sturdy footwear and long pants, and remember to bring water with you. Detailed information and confirmation of the meeting location will be sent by email the day before the event. If you are hoping to bring a group of 5 or more people, please reach out to us first. For more information contact Marisa Miller at miller@fow.org.
