Description

This is your chance to get outdoors and help the stewardship team!  Need an excuse to check out the fall foliage around the Southern Tier?  Your help is needed to trim back highly invasive trees encroaching on the trails at this very unique preserve.

You are welcome to arrive when you can, and stay as long as you are able.  Work gloves and tools will be provided, but please bring plenty of water and lunch.

Directions

From route 17 in Big Flats, take exit 49.  Turn south from the exit ramp and go to Olcott Rd.  At T intersection, turn right on Rt. 64 (unmarked), and right again on Rt. 352.  Turn left on So. Corning Rd., cross the river, and turn left on Steege Hill Rd.  Go about 1 mile and pull into the parking lot on the left, just before the pipeline cut.  Get more preserve information.
