Help Maintain the Sky Meadows Seed Orchard
August 6, 2019 @ 9:00 am - 5:00 pm
Hey Chestnut Enthusiasts!
Anyone interested in helping with some critically needed orchard maintenance at the VA chapter seed orchard at Sky Meadows Sate Park? We need help weed-whacking, hand-pulling weeds, spraying and fertilizing, etc.
The work will probably take a few hours and if we start early we can beat the heat.
When: Tuesday, August 6th at 9:00 AM
Where: Sky Meadows State Park, Delaplane, VA
Please park at the visitor center and walk down the gravel road to the orchard (you can see it from the Visitor Center parking lot).
What to bring: Gloves, water, sun screen, bug spray, lunch & snacks, and dress for the weather and for a little bit of poison ivy you may encounter (I wear long sleeves and pants).
That’s it. Just let me know via email if you think you can make it. I expect carpooling from the Charlottesville area, please inquire.
Hope to see you there!
Tom Saielli
