Community Workday At Panther Creek Forest Farm

  • Panther Creek Forest Farm 4305 Redwood Road Durham, NC, 27704 United States (map)

Panther Creek Forest Farm, in partnership with Keep Durham Beautiful and Leaf & Limb’s Project Pando, is a community-driven tree nursery that sustainably grows trees and gives them to the community for free through tree plantings, give away events, plant swaps and other community events. However, to grow these trees, we need your help! 

Come out to the farm and help us prepare the next crop of tree seedlings! 

Tasks:

  • Constructing a shade structure for seed boxes

  • Flipping compost piles

  • Weeding potted trees

  • Checking for and removing any "duds"

We’ll provide:  tools, snacks, water, gloves

Not invited:  pets (we love them, but others may not)

Please wear closed-toed shoes or boots, and long pants. Bring a reusable water bottle, a hat, and something to tie up long hair if needed. You may also want to bring a small backpack for personal items.
