Solar Field Volunteer Day (August 27, 2026)
The NJSOC is working closely with the US Fish and Wildlife Service on a project to remove invasive species and establish a pollinator meadow in the old solar field. This will create a wonderful new wildlife habitat and educational space on campus. In preparation for a fall seeding, we need to remove some of the remaining invasive species and need your help. The target for the day will be foxtail grass and eradication involves hand pulling and transport to our disposal site. If you’d like to join the fun, wear long pants and long sleeves and BYO gloves. We’ll provide the education, inspiration and snacks.

Their care and attending made a meaningful impact on both our trails and Ambassador Animals. It wasn’t all
