Behind the Scenes: Stewardship Day
Our local lands thrive because of the dedicated hands that tend to them. In this special five-minute feature, 12-year-old volunteer Fiona takes us behind the scenes of our very first stewardship day at the Antos Farm Sanctuary on Marsh Road.
Fiona captures the incredible energy, hard work, and joy of our 20 volunteers who braved the summer heat to prepare the land for our upcoming celebration.
“We had a massive amount of work to do today, but our stewardship volunteers jumped right in to tackle it. From the youngest participants, eager to help, to seasoned volunteers who shared their expertise, it was truly a collective effort.”
— Heather Radcliffe, DCLT Vice President
