The Falling Run Greenspace is an accessible, vibrant urban oasis with the potential to become a central park for the heart of Morgantown, forging a connection between West Virginia University’s Organic Farm and the Main Downtown Campus. Working in small groups, more than 1,000 student and faculty volunteers and crew leaders helped to build the 16 hiking trails over the past nine months.

This greenspace opens up a wide variety of opportunities for WVU students and Morgantown residents. The trails will enhance quality of life, access to nature and a natural learning environment for biology, forestry and other natural sciences.

The ceremony is open to the public.
