Riverside Park’s Annual Leaf Lift 2025

Join us for a fun day of giving back to our community by helping rake leaves in the beautiful Riverside Park. This event is a great way to enjoy the outdoors, meet new people, and make a difference. No experience necessary, just bring your energy and enthusiasm! You may know of the “Leave the leaves” practice that we follow to protect habitat for insect friends in our natural areas.

For our Leaf Lift event, we focus on removing leaves from high traffic pathways to provide a safer and cleaner experience in the park. And the best part? All leaves removed from these projects will be composted in Riverside Park, either supporting our work at our compost compound or going back into our woodland and restoration areas. Don’t forget to wear comfortable clothes and sturdy shoes.
