Pisgah Project Day
Join us next year on
Saturday, April 24th, 2027!
Pisgah Project Day is held annually on the last Saturday in April and is Pisgah’s largest volunteer day. Each spring, hundreds of community volunteers join forces with The Pisgah Conservancy, our event sponsors and partners, and the Forest Service to complete dozens of improvement projects throughout the Pisgah Ranger District.
Project highlights from Pisgah Project Day 2026 include:
- Turnpike construction, brushing, drainage improvements, and more on 13 trails
- Invasive plant removal at five sites in the forest
- Gardening improvements at the Pisgah Ranger Station / Visitor Center
- Planting of native trees and shrubs at three sites in the forest
- Trail brushing and improvements on the Cradle of Forestry grounds
- Hemlock treatment along Avery Creek Road
- Trash cleanup at three sites in the forest
- Rebuilding of damaged split rail fence at Cat Gap and the Fish Hatchery
