Nursery Weeding/Mulching Workday

Participants will work together with OCF AmeriCorps members to help W**d out invasive species from the tree’s pots around the nursery. Able-bodied volunteers will help move mulch throughout the nursery to prevent new weeds from growing. No experience is necessary, just a willingness to work with others while enjoying the outside! Great opportunity to gain hands-on nursery and landscape experience while supporting a good cause!

This event is for all ages, for other possible events check out our Eventbrite page!
