Hands-on effort for open space

The Cherry Hill Environmental Board is inviting volunteers to Croft Farm on Saturday, Sept. 28, to mark National Public Lands Day and make a difference for the township’s open-space land.

The event is an opportunity to work toward improving township trails, controlling trail erosion, picking up trash and more. Volunteers will be provided with tools and yard waste bags. 

To participate, register online and meet at Croft Farm’s large red barn at 100 Bortons Mill Road at 9 a.m. to sign in, pick up tools and receive assignments. 

National Public Lands Day is the largest hands-on volunteer effort in the nation. Visit https://www.chnj.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=1785 for more information.
