Calendar

As part of its efforts to restore the parklands of the Charles River Basin, the Conservancy will hold meetings to discuss Basin projects and increase public awareness of Conservancy activities, conduct legislative briefings, and sponsor workshops and symposiums. Those events will be posted here. For details, see below or contact us.

Volunteer events: Now that winter has arrived, our focus is on pruning Parklands trees. We'll be working throughout the Parklands to improve the health of the trees by removing dead limbs, thinning out branches, and even cutting down unsightly dead trees. We welcome both experienced tree pruners and novices to come and provide a helping hand. Training will be provided at the beginning of each event to ensure that pruning is done correctly and safely. Location will be described when you sign up.
