About

Show some love for Fairmount Park's Boxers Trail! Join us for a restoration project to remove invasive vines and address erosion along the trail and forests.

The Boxers Trail take you through old growth forests, along babbling brooks, and across rich, open meadows. Come explore this Philly gem, and help preserve the meadows and forests that make it so special. We'll spend the morning removing invasive plants and maintaining the trail. 

All tools and materials will be provided- including work gloves (though you're welcome to bring your own). Please note restrooms are not available at this location, and volunteers should bring plenty of water for themselves.

Remember to stay home if you experience COVID-19 symptoms or have been in contact with a confirmed case in the last 14 days. 

This event will be cancelled in the event of heavy rain or thunder!

Requirements

Volunteers are required to:
  • Stay home if you experience COVID-19 symptoms, or if you have had close contact with a confirmed COVID-19 case in the past 14 days. Symptoms include cough, fever, shortness of breath, fatigue, chills, headache, sore throat, muscle pain, new loss of taste or smell, and diarrhea (Know the symptoms.)
  • Stay at least six feet from others.
  • Use hand sanitizer or wash your hands immediately after removing gloves. 
  • Dispose of single-use gloves properly; wash reusable work gloves between uses.
