Volunteer with the Stewardship Team to plant trees in the forest of Jones Woods Park! Trees provide so many benefits to New Yorkers such as improved air and water quality, reduced pollution, and lower energy costs. Volunteers will be trained in proper planting techniques. Groups larger than 10, please contact maria.amin@parks.nyc.gov before registering. This project is partially funded by a grant from the 2016 NYSDEC Hudson River Estuary Program.
