Land Stewardship Projects

Land stewardship projects engaging volunteers are essential to our work restoring habitats and maintaining trails. During the growing season, CCF hosts weekly volunteer stewardship projects.Together we pull, cut, and dig invasive plant species, working toward the reward of replacing them with native plants. We welcome new participants!
