Work Day at JK Black Oak

July 5, 2025 @ 8:00 am - 11:00 am
Volunteers work on fence to exclude deer.

JK Black Oak Wildlife Sanctuary is a beautiful 89-acre wildlife preserve located in Lucketts.  Loudoun Wildlife purchased the property in 2020 to preserve this globally rare wetland, which is home to a wonderful diversity of unique species.  This time, we’ll finish the installation of the fence around the Pin Oak vernal pool. Due to the environmentally sensitive habitat and rare species, JK Black Oak is not open for general public access. 20 volunteers needed – volunteers must be at least 16 years old.   Registration required.

Please note: Work days require physical activity, which may be strenuous, such as digging and sawing in weedy, overgrown areas. Please be aware that poison ivy and ticks may present. Long sleeves and pants, gardening gloves and insect repellant are recommended. Closed-toe shoes are required. If you do not enjoy working in these types of conditions, you should seek out other volunteer opportunities.

Questions: Contact Volunteer Coordinator Kim Strader at kstrader@loudounwildlife.org.

Registration is closed.
