Join us on Sunday, November 15th from 12-4pm to help take care of the young trees on the property. Come for 1 hour or stay the whole time. Serenity Ridge is in need of volunteers to help maintain around 200 trees. For each tree we will be taking off deer cages, weeding around the base of trees, removing invasive species around the trees, pruning dead branches, mulching the bases, and then putting deer cages around each tree. We will also be removing dead trees.

We plan to have Keith Cotter, a licensed arborist with the state of Maryland and a member of the Tree Care Industry Association, host a tree maintenance workshop at the beginning of our Tree Maintenance event. He has more than 40 years of experience and knowledge in the tree care industry as a member of the Tree Care Industry Association (T.C.I.A.).  As a licensed arborist he attends up-to-date, informative tree care & safety classes and will share his knowledge and answer your tree care questions at this workshop.
A few things to note:
  • BRING DRINKING WATER-There is no potable water onsite
  • Light snacks will be provided, but feel free to bring some of your own
  • Dress for the weather and wear clothes that can get dirty
  • Wear sturdy shoes
  • We will provide some basic tools. We encourage you to bring your favorite pruning shears, soil knives, gloves, or spades, etc. from home, but mark them with your name so they don’t get lost.
