Our very active field crews work on habitat restoration including invasive control, planting and seed collection. Other efforts include boardwalk and trail construction, repair, and maintenance. Volunteer crews begin field work in mid-March and run through mid-November depending on weather. Saturday crews work weekly from 9am - 12pm, and Sunday crews from 1pm - 4pm, but may change to 9am - 12pm when the weather is hot. Opportunities are offered during the week, but not on a regular schedule. We provide training and education, so everyone is welcome!
