Events on the Eno

The Eno River Association is collaborating with Urban Community AgriNomics (UCAN) to help remove trees to prepare 2.2 acres for sustainable agriculture! You can learn more about UCAN here.

We are recruiting swampers (log-haulers) to help our certified sawyers (chainsaw operators) as they fell trees, which will be piled to be used for wood chips or sold for firewood, with all sales benefitting UCAN in their mission to empower Durham communities with access to resources to grow their own food in a sustainable way.
