Community Ecological Restoration Work Days at Shelburne Farms
Thank you for your interest in supporting local restoration and remediation! We are dedicated to growing our Earth Care Community and grateful you want to join us.

This work directly supports MycoEvolve’s current research, Myco-Phytoremediation in Multi-Functional Riparian Forest Buffers: Restoration, Education, Training, and Rematriation.

Instructions for arriving:
Drive to the farm entrance at 1161 Harbor Rd. We will gather in the visitor parking lot by the Farm Store and clean our boots to prevent snake worm infestation at the site.

We invite those who are comfortable to carpool from the parking lot to the site so we minimize cars parked at the site. We'll bring everything we need for the day with us.
