The Conservancy engages thousands of volunteers in people-driven restoration efforts along Rock Creek. These initiatives involve the removal of invasive plants and the collection of litter, aiming to enhance forest health and promote the cleanliness of waterways. Through our community programs, we strive to foster connections among individuals and communities, encouraging a deeper understanding and shared responsibility for the well-being of our collective backyard.
