Earth Day 2012: Stewardship Saturday at Tryon Creek

Thanks to Comcast volunteers for their stewardship efforts at Tryon Creek!


Start 'em young!
Ivy vines, you've been warned.
We love this young lady's stewardship ethic!
Thanks to volunteer efforts, these vines are no longer a threat to the trees of Tryon Creek
Three cheers for the Oregon Buddhist Temple Dharma School for their wonderful help!
We can't think of a better way to celebrate Earth Day than caring for Mother Earth

Volunteers make things happen at Tryon Creek. Saturday's "Spring into Action" work party in honor of Earth Day 2012 was no exception. Volunteers from Lewis and Clark College, Oregon Buddhist Temple Dharma School, and Comcast hit the ground running and removed a significant amount of ivy. Their energy and enthusiasm for caring for the forest was inspiring and was a great example of the good that can be accomplished when people work together.
