Trail Work & Conservation Projects

Trail Work & Conservation volunteers assist with maintenance of the nearly 5 miles of trails as well as work to improve the grounds as wildlife habitat. Typical work projects can include repairing boardwalks, mulching trails, removing invasive plant species, or working on erosion control projects.

Volunteers work on projects supervised by staff at set dates/times - currently the first and second Saturday of each month from 8 a.m. to noon and 1 to 5 p.m. and every Tuesday and Thursday from 9 a.m. to noon. Training is on-the-job. Anyone wishing to participate MUST contact the volunteer coordinator by the Wednesday prior. Minimum age 16 (with parent consent), or 12 if volunteering with a parent/guardian.
