By helping us to build safe, sustainable, accessible nature trails for the community, you can make it easier for people to access our parks, the forest, lakes, rivers, streams, meadows, marshes, mountain tops and the ocean to enjoy our natural environment. This reduces stress and promotes responsible stewardship of our remaining natural areas.
Description
Volunteer Trail Builders can help with digging in the dirt, moving rocks, carrying buckets of dirt or rocks and trimming bushes. Other activities might include clipping and moving bushes, and carrying lumber for bridges. We work outside in forested areas.
