Help Plant a Shoreline Buffer- Norfolk

About this event

Do something beautiful by assisting Elizabeth River Project staff with planting the next phase of the shoreline buffer along the Lafayette branch! The project will address stormwater and tidal flooding on the East end of Knitting Mill Creek while adding plant diversity and water filtration with native grasses and flowering plants. While adding rich habitat for wildlife, it will also serve as an interpretive planting to showcase native plants.

All supplies will be provided for you, Muck boots and your favorite work gloves are encouraged if you have them. A water bottle and sunscreen are also encouraged.

Once registered, a staff member will reach out to confirm your shift and include full location address. Volunteers will be notified within 24 hours of shift if any changes or cancellations have been made due to weather or tides.
