May Mitzvah Morning

May 16, 2021 - 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

For our May Mitzvah Morning Project, we are fortunate to be teaming up with the Mill River Wetland Committee (MRWC) of Fairfield. 

We will meet at the Rockland Road/Wilson Road Park in Fairfield.  There we will work with the MRWC team to clean up the park and get it ready for the spring and summer season.  This means raking leaves, pulling weeds, spreading mulch, and planting native shrubs and bushes; basically, making the park beautiful and enjoyable for all, in an environmentally friendly way.

If you have available a shovel or rake, please bring one, as well as gardening gloves.  And don’t forget to bring water – it’s important to stay hydrated when working outdoors under the sun!  Sign up today to join us.

For some background, the Mill River Wetland Committee has a simple and straightforward mission:  Educate, Advocate, Engage.

• Educate the community about the value of watersheds
• Advocate for their continued protection
• Engage all people in the fight to protect our environment

Parking for this event is available on Rockland Road, right next to the park.  Please see the map below for directions from B’nai Israel as a frame of reference. 

Be on the lookout for more updates in Hashavua.  We look forward to seeing you there.
