We’re looking for 1-2 volunteers to paint owl boxes and wooden tripod supports at the Mason Center in July and August (exact dates flexible). If desired, boxes can be taken offsite for painting.

Native Seeds/SEARCH needs garden volunteers

Volunteer shifts are 7:00-10:00 AM, Tuesdays & Thursdays. All shifts take place at the CC Farm at River/Alvernon (3584 E River Rd) When you arrive at the Conservation Center, we’ll likely be out in the field. Both pathways from the parking lot lead into the courtyard – follow the west path to two picnic tables- our volunteer “home base.” You can sign in there and flag any of our staff/apprentices down. They will plug you into the day’s work!
