2024 Program Overview
EarthCorps Program Director Elizabeth White joins Campfire Chat to discuss the Corps Program. Covering the structure of the programming to how the feedback loop has redefined the program’s structure, White answers all your questions about what to expect from this year’s Corps Program.
Mill Creek Canyon
In this series, EarthCorps’ Field Operations Manager Whitney and EarthCorps’ Project Manager Mahleah welcomed folks who have supported the ongoing Mill Creek Canyon Project.
Whitney shares: “The Canyon is a fantastic place with rich ecology. When you get far enough into the Canyon, you could close your eyes and not know that you are in the middle of a very dense urban landscape. There are many big plans for the Mill Creek Canyon that go beyond trail work, but our piece, for now, focuses on trail construction and design.”
