Volunteers will use pitchforks to load mulch into wheelbarrows, hard rakes to distribute mulch around tree rings and in floral beds throughout the park.
Volunteers should be prepared for the weather (layered clothing), wear long pants. Close-toed and sturdy hard sole shoes are required. Recommended: Work gloves (if you own them), sunscreen, face covering and a refillable water bottle. There will be work gloves available to borrow. Cincinnati Parks discourages single use plastics.
