Donato Woods Restoration Workday in Woodstock

Volunteers are needed at Donato Conservation Area, an amazing woodland right in the middle of Woodstock! This isn’t just any woods-it’s full of beautiful spring wildflowers, ferns and a vast diversity of native plants unrivaled by most woodlands in town!

In this woodland, volunteers are needed to remove invasive species that prohibit the growth of native trees and plants. We cut brush such as buckthorn, honeysuckle, and small willows with chainsaws and hand loppers. Volunteers can cut or help build and burn brush piles.

No experience is necessary, so if you love being outside, come join our team of friendly volunteers! Tools and light refreshments are provided. Please dress in long pants, sturdy shoes and old clothing for working near a burn pile.

Workdays at Donato Conservation Area take place the first Sunday of each month.
