Corporate Planting Day — A Partnership Opportunity with Long Island Conservancy

Success in conservation is built one step at a time — one native plant, one restored space, one engaged community. Long Island Conservancy has spent years proving that when awareness turns into action, the results ripple outward: ecosystems strengthened, wildlife supported, and a more resilient Long Island taking shape. Now we’re inviting your company to be part of that momentum.

What Is Corporate Planting Day?

Corporate Planting Day is a hands-on volunteer experience where your team comes out to a real restoration site and gets to work — planting native trees and wildflowers, clearing invasive species, and helping bring Long Island’s natural landscapes back to life.

No experience necessary. Just show up ready to dig in.

Your team will be guided by LIC staff and trained restoration volunteers every step of the way. We handle the site, the tools, the plants, and the plan. You bring the people.

Sessions run approximately 2–3 hours on weekday mornings or afternoons, and sites are available across Nassau, Suffolk, Queens, and Brooklyn — so we can find a location that works for your team. 

Why Participate?

Support a nonprofit doing real work. Long Island Conservancy is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2021 with a simple, urgent mission: plant native, remove the invasive, and conserve our lands. Every Corporate Planting Day directly advances active restoration projects, the kind that rebuild ecological corridors for migratory birds, support pollinators, and protect the island we all call home.

Make a measurable difference for Long Island. Your team won’t just feel good, they’ll see results. Plants go in the ground. Acres get restored. The impact is real, visible, and lasting.

Build your team in a way that actually means something. There’s no better team-building than working side by side toward a shared purpose. Corporate Planting Day gets your staff out of the office, into nature, and connected to each other in a way no conference room can replicate.

What to Expect

  • A welcome and site orientation from LIC staff
  • Guided hands-on planting and/or invasive removal
  • A closing reflection on what your team accomplished
  • A post-event impact summary with photos — perfect for internal communications and social media
  • Recognition of your company’s contribution to LIC’s ongoing restoration work

Who Is This For?

Corporate Planting Day is ideal for companies of all sizes who want to invest in their community, support a local nonprofit, and give their staff a meaningful day outside the office. Whether your team is five people or fifty, we’ll design an experience that works.

A Note on Giving

Participation in Corporate Planting Day is offered as a community partnership. While donations to Long Island Conservancy are never required, they are always welcome and go directly toward active restoration work across the region.
