 Thanks to Bill, Ken, Len, Nikki, Tim and Tom for attending the Spruce Up.  We trimmed trees in the path.  Above is some of our handiwork.

General Information

The V&E Greenline is a 1.7 mile long greenspace that is open to everyone to use as a community park. People walk, jog, talk to other users, enjoy the trees and birds, and walk their dogs. But, the V&E Greenline is solely dependent upon volunteers who do the maintenance and cleanup of this beautiful community asset.

Volunteers come from many places: neighborhood residents, users of the V&E Greenline, community groups, Hands on Memphis, and students.

Volunteer days involve trimming branches, removing debris, cleanup up drainage areas, cutting weeds, raking leaves, removing dead branches and many other tasks.

There is much landscaping and clearing that must be done to make the Greenline more user friendly. Volunteers gather together on a Saturday morning on the Greenline starting at 9:00 and afterwards enjoy a noon lunch together. 

Many of Volunteer Days start at the Greenline Stationhouse, a building at 1625 Tutwiler. If the event moves to another site on the V&E Greenline, it will be posted both on this website and at the stationhouse.

Email VEGreenline.Org for more information about Volunteer Days.

 

Thank you to all of the wonderful people that come to Volunteer Days--and a special thanks to our Hands on Memphis volunteers
