VolunTuesdays - Cow Tent Hill Preserve (POSTPONED)

  • Cow Tent Hill Preserve 1265 Tremont Street Duxbury, MA, 02332 United States (map)

** Our work day at Cow Tent Hill Preserve has been postponed due to inclement weather. Stay tuned for a make-up date. But VolunTuesday is still on! We need your help assessing trail damage from Monday’s storm so that our stewardship staff knows where to respond. To monitor a Wildlands preserve, contact Stewardship Programs Manager Zoë Smiarowski at zsmiarowski@wildlandstrust.org. **

Wildlands needs your help!

Join Wildlands Trust stewardship staff at Cow Tent Preserve in Duxbury to re-route a short, washed out section of trail. All experience levels are welcome, and no registration is required! 

Work will include clearing brush, digging new tread and covering up the former trail. Long sleeves + neck gaiters are encouraged as the property has a significant amount of poison ivy that participants will more than likely come into contact with. Staff will provide IvyX and Tecnu.

The volunteer day will last from 10am-1pm. Volunteers are free to come and go as they please. Questions? Contact Stewardship Programs Manager Zoë Smiarowski at zsmiarowski@wildlandstrust.org.
