Fall Work Weekend at Ivy’s


  • Ivy Payne Preserve 650 An County Road 134 Elkhart, TX, 75839 (map)
 

Join TLC staff and volunteers for a weekend of camping, trail work, invasive species removal, and more at our Ivy Payne Preserve near Palestine, Texas. There will be jobs for every ability; no experience required. Come for the day - Saturday, October 26 – or stay for the whole weekend. Volunteers will be provided a campsite and meals during the weekend.

We rely on our volunteers to help us keep the preserve beautiful and accessible for our Spring and Fall camping weekends, which are open to the public. We encourage volunteers to return with friends and family to relax and share the preserve during our next open weekend: Fall Weekend at Ivy’s (November 22-24, 2024)
