Join us for a Work Party in Gallagher Hill Open Space

Gallagher Hill Open Space is a beautiful park with a lovely trail system. Unfortunately, much of the park is overgrown with blackberry and ivy, threatening the health of this vital ecosystem. Situated above the freeway Gallagher Hill is an important respite of nature that is well worth protecting. Come join us to celebrate our trails and help our local ecosystems thrive. Tasks will include ivy and blackberry removal and mulch spreading.

No experience necessary, all ages welcome!
