who we are:
A dedicated crew powered by our amazing volunteer force
What We Do:
Plant forests to establish riparian buffer zones and educate the public about the connection between trees and streams through volunteer events
WHERE WE WORK:
Frederick County, Maryland
WHEN WE WORK:
Every fall and spring we host a variety of volunteer events
-
Our mission is to connect the Frederick community to conservation and restoration through volunteer events. We teach individuals how to become environmental stewards through hands-on work involving tree planting and maintenance.
-
Our vision is to reforest Frederick County acre by acre, creating riparian buffer zones that will protect the Chesapeake Bay watershed. We will buffer the waterways from overland flow of water carrying pollutants, stabilize stream banks to prevent further erosion and increase resilience to extreme weather events, and provide large stretches of forests to enhance wildlife habitat.
-
We value collaboration, innovation, and hard work.
