Join us for a community volunteer event at 8th Street on the Greenway. Come see our Greenway rain garden and bioswale in action, filtering and absorbing recent storm runoff. We'll have a fun day outside tending our native plants. We are converting an old railroad track into a beautiful pedestrian/cycling park that runs through Richmond.
No experience necessary and children are welcome, accompanied by an adult. Tools, gloves, water and snacks will be provided. Please bring a reusable water bottle if you have one. Wear sturdy shoes and clothes that can get dirty. Heavy rain cancels.
Students are welcome to do community service and if under 18, please email us for a waiver as parent permission is required
The Watershed Project hosts community volunteer projects on the Richmond Greenway every Second Saturday. Join us for our monthly event, or contact Sharon (sharon (@) thewatershedproject.org) for information on scheduling a workday for your group.
Contact us with any questions or to RSVP for your group.
Please join us for a fun day on the Greenway!
