Volunteer Workday: Donegal Highlands Nature Preserve

Come out to help us restore Donegal Highlands Nature Preserve. We will be working on invasive shrub removal as part of a comprehensive eco-restoration program.

What to Expect: We will be working on potentially steep, uneven terrain with multiple trip hazards using hand tools to remove invasive species. Hand tools and work gloves will be provided. There are port-a-johns available across the street at Old Trolley Line Park. This event is for ages 10 and up (participants under 18 must be accompanied by an adult).

Where to Meet: Please park across the street at Old Trolley Line Park. We will meet at the far east end of the parking lot and cross the street to Donegal Highlands Nature Preserve together.

What to Bring: Dress for the weather. Long, sturdy pants (we may be working amongst throrns) and closed toe shoes are a must. Bring drinking water and a snack.

Animal Policy: Service animals active or in training are welcome. Please leave all pets at home.

Event Leader: Interpretive Ranger Rachel Haynes loves discovering new places and basking in the lush glens tucked along the Susquehanna River.

Cancellation Policy: This event will be held rain or shine, with cancellation for severe weather at the time of the event. If the Conservancy reschedules the event, attendees will be emailed and tickets will be automatically moved to the new date. If the Conservancy cancels the event, attendees will be notified via email and refunded.
