Earth Day at Newlin Grist Mill

May 3, 2025 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm

Help celebrate nature and protect the environment with Newlin Grist Mill’s Earth Day volunteer event!

Each year, Newlin Grist Mill brings together diverse volunteers from the community, including individuals, families, scout troops, and youth groups, to work on projects that improve habitat for wildlife, protect important natural resources, and preserve the parkโ€™s plant and animal communities. Past projects have included planting trees, installing bird boxes, and stream cleanups.

Volunteers will plant trees, remove invasive plant species, repair trails, and improve habitat for wetland wildlife. Groups will be scheduled for 3 hour shifts (9am-12pm or 1-4pm).

Register for a shift by emailing jshahan@newlingristmill.org.
