Chainsaws due to arrive TOMORROW!
New Milford, PA – Calling all Protectors, Climate Warriors, Nonviolent Witness in the NE US — clearing of 100,000 trees is scheduled to begin Friday, Feb 5. WE NEED BODIES HERE NOW! Meet up at Home Base: Holleran/North Harford Maple, 2131 Three Lakes Road, New Milford PA.
Landowners in PA were notified by Pat McCluskey (chief landman) via a letter that tree felling will begin on Friday in Susquehanna County. We will need people on Friday morning through the weekend to volunteer.
The Holleran property is located at 2131 Three Lakes Road, New Milford, PA, but use these coordinates to find us: 41.8272387, -75.7585062
Parking is up in the field or down by the cabin, so look for “P” signs on either side of the road and follow the arrows. Wear layers and shoes/boots that can get dirty. Bring cameras if you have them.
Please follow this Facebook event for updates and plan to come to help if you can make it: https://www.facebook.com/
We have been present at 7AM every day since Saturday with little activity beyond Constitution trucks driving by slowly to check us out from the road. North Harford Maple is actively producing maple syrup from trees in the right of way and boiling it down off the right of way. Everyone is welcome to help with that operation.
We don’t have the ability to answer e-mails or follow discussion on this list during the day and most evenings. Phone contact is best if you need to ask for more information. Keep in mind, we are very busy and may miss your call, but we will call you back!:
