The Gunpowder Valley Conservancy (GVC) is leading a native forest restoration project directly within Wilson Point Park along Darkhead Creek. Enthusiastic GVC volunteers have planted more than 28,000 trees in the Gunpowder Watershed over the past 26 years and we need your help to plant even more!
This event will occur RAIN OR SHINE. Remember to wear boots, pants, long sleeve shirt, hat, gloves, and bring rain gear and water bottle. Water jug and a light snack will be provided.
