Earth Day Willow Conservation Project

For almost a decade volunteers have been helping the Town celebrate Earth Day by restoring disturbed areas along Sellars Gulch in Downtown Castle Rock or at Philip S. Miller Park. We harvest willow branches from healthy riparian (streamside) habitat upstream of Festival Park, then replant them along Sellars Gulch as it travels through Festival Park or along the drainages at Philip S. Miller Park.
