It was a beautiful day at Blackwood Farm as 9 young people came together through @volunteersforyouth #LifeLabs to get rid of some invasive species of plants, allowing natural beauty to thrive. It has been amazing to see these youth make such a visual difference here since we started in August. #OrangeCountyNC #CommunityStewardship. A special thank you to Charlie and the CH @jerseymikes crew for providing lunch for this monthly event.

🌱 Uproot U Success at the Seymour Center! 🌱 Today our volunteers rolled up their sleeves with our community partner Rewild Earth and got to work clearing invasive Autumn Olive and the impact was incredible. In just a short amount of time, we made a huge difference in restoring space for our native plants to thrive. Our guide Steven even brought an example of a Wistaria vine once they mature! This is what community action looks like 💪🌿 Thank you to everyone who came out to serve, learn, and make our environment healthier for future generations. 📅 Want to join us? Uproot U meets the 2nd Saturday of every month — and we’d love to see you there! #UprootU #VolunteersForYouth #CommunityImpact #EnvironmentalStewardship #RemoveInvasives NativePlants ChapelHillNC ServeYourCommunity
