Volunteer Day At Meadow Croft: Caring For Our Native Plants

Come out to Meadow Croft on Monday, November 11th, Veteran’s Day 10-1, and help tend to our native plants as we approach winter. Learn about them, about The American Chestnut, a tree we are helping to rescue from extinction, about Spotted Lanternflies, and how we can combat them.

Fall Planting Day Oct 9th At Meadow Croft

Meadow Croft, Where We Are Planting

At The Long Island Conservancy, Fall Planting Day takes place on Columbus Day (or Indigenous Peoples Day), on the second Monday of October. It is at this time of year when we plant for the spring, planting all that needs to be planted. Because there is no school on that day, it is a great day to log some service time, whether that involves harvesting native wildflower seeds, constructing a bioswale, or planting rare American Chestnut saplings.

At The Long Island Conservancy, it is our mission to teach communities how to create native habitat, how to restore local nature. Our local species are depending on us.
