John Graves, Sheridan Community Land Trust Director of Conservation and Resource Management, recently announced another volunteer project coming up at the Big Goose Natural Area, and everyone is invited to join in.
On Saturday, July 18, starting at 8:00 a.m., they will be removing the final 2,500 feet of old fence as part of our ongoing stewardship of the property.
Removing outdated fencing helps wildlife move more freely across the landscape while supporting SCLT’s ongoing goal of removing or replacing all fencing on the property with wildlife-friendly standards.
SCLT will provide snacks, drinks, fencing pliers, post pullers, and equipment to help remove and roll up wire. Volunteers are encouraged to wear long pants, sturdy footwear, and leather gloves. Bring a water bottle and lunch if you plan to stay for the entire day. If you have your own fencing tools, feel free to bring them along.
Last week, a group of great volunteers helped them to get about two-thirds of the project completed before the day got too hot to work.
Whether you can stay for an hour or the whole day, your help will make a lasting difference.
If you’re able to join us, please RSVP using the link below so we know how many volunteers to expect.

Thank you for everything you do to help care for places like the Big Goose Natural Area. I hope to see you there!
