The state of North Carolina recognizes June 6th, 2023, as “Secure Your Load Day.” This day focuses on educating people about the danger of unsecured truckloads and the environmental harm it presents. Therefore, GreenWorks is organizing a Secure Your Load Day event. The event will consist of a cleanup in the morning and an all-day-long call to action.
Need to know
Dress in comfortable walking shoes and clothes. Meet at 230 Hominy Creek Road (right outside French Broad Outfitters) at 9:30 am.
After signing in, volunteers will receive their cleanup gear. Then, we’ll review safety and instructions before heading out to cover Hominy Creek Road.
For parents who want to bring young children, please note that there are no sidewalks on Hominy Creek Road, and there is usually high traffic of cars and trucks.
We rely on financial support from our community to inspire, equip and mobilize volunteers who make an impact. Please consider making a gift in support of this event.
Join us for weekly workdays in the Sand Hill native tree nursery. Tasks vary and often include repotting, weeding, mulching, and other special projects to improve infrastructure and function.
Need to know
