York Conservation Area Restoration Workday

This small, 2.5 acre site was donated to The Land Conservancy in 2011. Although 2.5 acres isn’t much size, it’s directly adjacent to a high quality wetland complex which is adjacent to our Tryon Creek Woods site! Our property is an overgrown woodland with several giant white oaks and many smaller shagbark hickory. This workday will focus on cleaning up some limbs that fell on to our neighbor’s property and then continuing on with our invasive work.
