Seeking Volunteers for Native Wildflower Garden

The Land Conservancy of New Jersey is looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help maintain their native wildflower garden. WildAcres garden is located on a forty four acre preserve, which serves as the Conservancy’s Headquarters and is also a Montville Township park. The garden, established with the help of volunteers has also been certified by the National Wildlife Federation as an official Backyard Wildlife Habitat site.

Volunteers are needed to perform tasks such as weeding the garden beds and paths, pruning of some shrubs and trees, mulching and raking leaves and other general clean up. All tools and supplies will be provided.
