December HUB Restoration Work Party + Community Lunch (special date!)

You are invited!

Mark your calendars for this month's volunteer power hour from 10 AM to 1 PM and come be part of something special. Visit the wetland, meadow, forest, hedgerows, and riparian areas all stewarded by volunteers. Family friendly.

• Co-learn about restoration techniques for invasive plant removal.
• See how biodiversity can benefit farmers and food producers.
• Meet like-minded people.
• Give back to nature!
• Lunch is on us! At 12 PM, We will be serving lunch for all volunteers in the farm house—so come hungry and ready for a nutritious meal with great company.

This little patch of land thrives because of your dedication, and there’s no better way to reconnect with nature, meet like-minded folks, and make a real impact. Whether you’re a longtime volunteer or new to the HUB community, we’d love to have you there.
