Green Initiative at Berkeley Springs Depot

We Plant for Pollinators

Join Us for a Green Initiative at Berkeley Springs Depot

Are you passionate about nature and eager to make a positive environmental impact? We invite you to roll up your sleeves and volunteer for a rewarding project that blends ecology and community spirit!

What: Volunteer Opportunity – Planting Native Perennial Plants

Where: Berkeley Springs Depot, Nature-Based Stormwater Control Area

When: Saturdays, September 14 and 21 – 9:30am to11:30am

Thursdays, September 12 and 19 – 3:00pm to 4:30pm

Plants are native perennial, landscape-plugs that will be planted on Hugel beds that were created from local topsoil and compost.

Why: We are transforming the former rail yard into a thriving habitat by planting native perennial plants. This nature-based stormwater control area is designed to naturally remediate soil and improve the local ecosystem. Your efforts will help enhance soil health, support native wildlife, and contribute to sustainable stormwater management.

What to Bring: Gardening trowels, gloves, and a water bottle.

Let’s come together to nurture our environment and create a beautiful, functional space at the Berkeley Springs Depot. Your participation will make a significant difference in preserving and enhancing our local natural resources.

We look forward to seeing you there and working side-by-side for a greener future!
