Community Service in the Hollows

Please help maintain the Audubon Native Plant Garden that SCAS created at the end of 2018 as part of an Audubon in Action Grant. We also have another Native Plant Garden at the Rock Springs entrance that could always use some attention. And we have a lot of nonnative plants that need to be cut down, pulled out, and removed if that’s more to your liking.

Here’s a great opportunity for students looking for Community Service hours supporting a local nonprofit, individuals interested in gardening, and naturalists able to help with invasive plant management and trail maintenance. You can spend as much time as you like, from fifteen minutes to three hours.

**What We’ll Do** – Dig out small Brazilian Pepper trees, cut branches away from the trails, do trail improvements, cut back vines, or weed the gardens. We need volunteers to help maintain this beautiful green space. We are always looking for people to help with maintaining the beauty of our gardens and property. Let us know how you would like to help.

**What to Bring** – Work gloves, loppers, shovel, and/or saw. Wear sneakers or work shoes, long sleeves and pants, and a hat. Also, bring a water bottle, sunscreen, bug spray, and a hat.

**Important to Know** – **We now have restroom facilities (Porta-potty).** The trails are primitive and may have holes, gopher tortoise burrows, and other obstacles, please be cautious. Pets are not allowed.

You can also spend some time enjoying nature and watching the wildlife. We have lots of space for you to get out and enjoy a beautiful walk.
