VolunTuesdays - North Fork Preserve [POSTPONED]

  • Wyman Meadows Conservation Area 1715 Plymouth Street Bridgewater, MA, 02324 United States (map)

* Due to inclement weather, this VolunTuesday has been postponed. Stay tuned for a make-up date, and join us next week (Mar. 12) for VolunTuesday at Davis-Douglas Farm! *

Wildlands needs your help!

We’re back at North Fork Preserve! Join Wildlands Trust stewardship staff to add bog boards, remove trash, and trail blaze at our newest trail. All experience levels are welcome, and no registration is required! 

Work will include building bog boards, carrying boards out to the trail, removing dumped trash, and trail blazing (pending dry weather). At the project’s completion, a 1.5-mile trail will create public access to North Fork Preserve for the first time since Wildlands acquired it in 2001. The preserve comprises 41 acres of diverse woodland habitat along the banks of the Wild and Scenic Taunton River. The trail will begin at Wyman Meadow Conservation Area, a Town of Bridgewater preserve featuring 55 acres of historic farmland. 

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.
