DC EcoWomen Cleanup at Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens
October 22, 2022 @ 8:30 am - 12:00 pm
Join us for a morning of stewardship volunteering with Friends of Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens! Located in Ward 7, Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens is a national park site featuring over 45 ponds filled with water lilies and lotus and an elevated boardwalk through the surrounding tidal marshes. The tidal marshes in Kenilworth and the surrounding areas protect communities in Ward 7 and elsewhere from tidal flooding and provide an important habitat for birds and wildlife.
Volunteer tasks may include invasive plant removal, litter collection, flower bed weeding, trail maintenance and more. All necessary tools and supplies will be provided.
The event is open to all those who identify as women and their families.
When: Saturday, October 22, 8:30am -12:00pm. Please arrive no later than 8:45am.
Where: Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens, 1550 Anacostia Ave Northeast, Washington, DC 20019.
Getting There: As there are limited public transit options, a voluntary carpool sign-up will be sent to registered participants. Bicyclists can access the park from the Anacostia River Trail.
