Volunteer on a litter clean-up project in the Albany Pine Bush Preserve!
Help us clean up glass and trash within the preserve. Participants will work to remove glass from part of our trail system. If time allows, we will pick up litter within the preserve and clear vegetation around trail posts. All equipment including gloves, trash bags, and safety vests will be provided. Please dress appropriately for the weather and outdoor working conditions and bring your own water.
Work project is subject to change.
Reservations Required

An adult will need to accompany any participant under 18 years old.
Questions- Please contact Community Connections Coordinator, Sarah Reilly: sreilly@albanypinebush.org or 518-456-0655.
This program is part of our 2026 Lupine Fest passport program. Use your passport to explore Lupine Fest all month long! Attend hikes, programs, exhibits, and special events, and collect a stamp for each activity you complete.
