- Prep new stewardship areas like the compost bin site and educational storage space.
- Clean and organize our education supply closets and high-touch areas.
- Perform basic tool maintenance like sharpening and oiling hand tools.
What to Expect
All tools and supplies and training will be provided, but feel free to bring gloves or favorite hand tools. We recommend wearing outdoor-appropriate clothing, closed-toed shoes, and bringing a water bottle. Some tasks may be physically demanding or involve exposure to sun or dust. We do have specific tasks for different times of the day, but if you prefer a specific task, feel free to let us know and we should be able to accomodate.
Each session will include a short orientation, water breaks, and light snacks. Volunteers of all skill levels are welcome!
