A Special Wildlife Moment at the Pond 💚(last workday, May 23rd, 2026 10am)


Thank you again to all of our wonderful volunteers and supporters who continue to help care for the pond habitat. During this morning’s cleanup, we experienced a very special reminder of why this work matters — we discovered two tiny fawns quietly bedded down near the pond while their mother stayed nearby in the surrounding habitat. 💚

We adjusted our work area and continued cleanup quietly on the opposite side of the pond so the deer could remain undisturbed. It was a beautiful example of the pond functioning as important wildlife habitat and a reminder that many animals are actively raising young this time of year.

We truly appreciate the care, respect, and stewardship this community consistently brings to the project. Your efforts removing invasives, improving habitat, and protecting the pond are making a real difference.

As always, we welcome volunteers on the 4th Saturday of each month from 10:00 AM to noon. Whether you can stay the whole time or just stop by for a bit, we’d love to see you there.

Thank you all for helping create a peaceful refuge for wildlife and for our community. 🌿
