Meet us at the Herman and Kate Kaiser YMCA at Turkey Mountain, 9am–Noon, for a morning of giving these trails some well-earned TLC.
We’ll be tackling invasive species, trimming back overgrown limbs, and shoring up trail surfaces — the unglamorous work that keeps Turkey Mountain wild and sustainable for everyone who loves it.
This workday is well-suited for both returning volunteers and first-timers who want to learn more about invasive species management and hands-on stewardship. TUWC will provide guidance on identification, removal techniques, and why this work matters beyond a single trail corridor.
What to Expect
Hands-on invasive species removal
Education on lespedeza and its impact on native ecosystems
Collaboration with fellow volunteers who care about local trails and wild spaces
9AM – Noon
What to Bring / Wear
Water
Long pants
Long-sleeve shirt
Sturdy, closed-toe shoes or boots
Gloves (if you have them)
Loppers (if you have them)
Manual / pocket chainsaw (if you have one)
The Herman and Kate Kaiser YMCA is situated on the Northern side of Turkey Mountain, sharing a border with Mooser Creek and Pepsi Pond. In years past the TUWC has hosted many fun work days here and we look forward to the chance to do this again! Come join us!
Show up, dig in, and help us care for the places we all share.
Contact Peter at the TUWC with any questions or concerns.
