What kind of volunteer opportunities are offered?
Projects for Your Group and Organization Custom projects can be arranged for your group of ten or more at various natural areas along the Mississippi River. Most habitat restoration projects require a three-hour time commitment and focus on planting native plants and/or removing invasive weeds. Please contact us at least four weeks prior to your requested date. Events Whether it’s a school program, a community event, biking or canoeing programs or an open house at a unique site along the river or any other special event that makes the Mississippi River a great place to explore, volunteers play a key role. Volunteering for an event is perfect for the busy person who can only commit to short-term openings or for the regular volunteer who is looking to add more volunteer opportunities. School, Scout and Youth Groups Habitat restoration, seed starting programs and other habitat restoration programs are available for school and youth groups March through October.
