Opportunity Details
Park and Garden Work Days
Ward Acres Conservancy is seeking volunteers to help with pulling, digging, and cutting invasive plants around the park to make room for beneficial native plants that provide nectar, pollen, and berries for pollinators like Monarch butterflies, hummingbirds, and songbirds. Volunteers can also assist with litter and debris cleanup.
