Woodlawn Wednesday

Help restore the beautiful woodlands of Van Cortlandt Park’s east side! Join us for Woodlawn Wednesdays, where volunteers like you play a vital role in preserving this important urban ecosystem.

You might:

Remove Invasive Species: Tackle harmful plants like multiflora rose, bush honeysuckle, bittersweet, and Japanese angelica tree that threaten our native biodiversity.

Maintain Trails: Keep paths clear, safe, and welcoming for all park visitors.

No experience needed! We provide all tools and gloves. You’ll also learn about forest ecology, plant ID, and restoration techniques.

Where:

Meet outside the handball courts at Woodlawn Playground

(Located on the east side of Van Cortlandt Park)
