Friends of Tryon Creek: Join the fun and volunteer for Tryon Creek’s annual Trillium Festival!
Posted by hannah.cherry
Join in the fun – volunteer for the Trillium Festival! April 10-12
Our biggest community event and perhaps our most enjoyable volunteer days, the Trillium Festival, is coming up quickly. And we need YOU to help with the plant sale, direct traffic, set-up & tear-down, and much more!
The event is from 10am to 4pm on the 11th & 12th both days and volunteers will be needed for shifts ranging from 7am to 7pm. This event celebrates spring and the trillium flowers and encourages people to buy and garden with native plants. It is a great way to help us highlight Tryon Creek State Natural Area and support the Friends’ education and restoration programs.
