🌿 Volunteer Opportunity: Help Us “Do Something Beautiful”! 🌿

Join the Elizabeth River Project at the Ryan Resilience Lab as we prepare for native plantings in Knitting Mill Creek Park, our upcoming community pocket park! We’re looking for volunteers to help remove invasive species like Phragmites.

This is a chance to “Do Something Beautiful” by connecting with nature in a meaningful way. You’ll be working alongside our team to restore balance to the ecosystem and make space for plants that truly belong.

🧤 All supplies will be provided—including gloves.

💧 Dress for outdoor work and bring your reusable water bottle.

🧤 If you have preferred work gloves, feel free to bring them along!

Let’s work together to create a space that supports biodiversity, community, and resilience.
