Meadow Work Day

Forge Project invites neighbors from the region to participate in a Meadow Work Day, learning about and participating in some of the remediation work happening onsite how they can fold simple restoration practices into their own home spaces and gardens. Introductions will be led at 4:15 PM and 5:45 PM – attendees are welcome to stay for the entire time. 

Basic plant identification will be led by allied botanists Claudia Knab-Vispo and Josie Laing of the Hawthorne Valley Farmscape Ecology Program, and seeding overview provided by landscape architect Jamie Purinton to guide our work. 

Context for some of the shifts happening throughout the land at Forge Project shared by Sarah Biscarra Dilley, Director of Indigenous Programs and Relationality, and Paloma Wake, Strategy and Operations Manager. 

Guests are asked to bring their own gardening gloves and handtools if possible; (for example a digging fork, dandelion digger, hand clippers), a water bottle, and a willingness to work together.  Beverages and a meal will be provided by Forge Project.

Forge Project charges a sliding scale fee for events and recommends direct donations in the amount of your choosing to the Cultural Affairs Department at the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. For more information on our fee structure, please see our Eventbrite page.
