Wild Woods Restoration Project

Learn how to grow native plants and help grow plants for use in restoration projects in our parks! Sign up here.

Come work with the Wild Woods Restoration Project volunteers at Hudson Highlands Land Trust to pot up seedlings and learn how to care for them at home until they are ready for planting.

LOCATION: Hudson Highlands Land Trust headquarters, Garrison, NY
Advanced registration is required. More details about meeting location will be provided on sign-up.

ACTIVITY: We'll be potting up seedlings of several species of native plants. We'll be sitting outdoors in the shade while we work, and you'll be learning from experts about the native plants and how to grow them. We provide the pots, soil and plants. All you need to do is learn and help.

BECOMING A GROWER: We need many volunteers to help grow the plants. If you are willing to take home plants to grow for us, you will need to have a place outdoors for a 10 inch by 20 inch tray on level ground, in part-shade (gets a few hours of sun during the day but is also shaded for a few hours). You'll need to take care of them until the fall when we will have planting work days scheduled. You can take plants home to care for right from the event!

WEATHER: We will email you in case there is a change of plans due to weather.
