Thank you to the volunteers who helped us on our first work day! It was a great success. Ten volunteers met at the headquarters parking lot and hiked back to the Titus Sutphen homestead site. They worked to clear invasive from the stone walls in advance of our Heritage Hike planned for June 20th.

Our next volunteer workday is coming up on June 2nd, 9am-noon. We will return to the site to continue clearing brush. Wear sturdy footwear, gardening gloves and dress for the weather. Tools provided.
