Now accepting Community Science and Garden Stewardship volunteers!

Do you want to participate in community science or steward native plant gardens? Can you commit to working at least two Wednesday morning shifts each month? Join our team of volunteers!

Garden stewards are needed to weed and tend the shade garden by the Trail’s End Lodge and the glade garden by the Nature Center. Community science volunteers help us document and monitor wildlife through the following programs: iNaturalist, eBird, eButterfly, the Monarch Larva Monitoring Project, and more. Community science volunteers should be comfortable with or willing to learn the apps and technology associated with each program.

We depend on volunteers.

Floracliff volunteers are important stewards and ambassadors for the sanctuary. They help us accomplish restoration goals; share the biodiversity, natural history, and cultural history of the sanctuary; participate in local and global community science projects; maintain our trails, facilities, and infrastructure; and so much more. This training is specifically for new COMMUNITY SCIENCE or GARDEN STEWARDSHIP volunteers. Additional volunteering opportunities may be added at a later date.

Volunteer Commitment and Training:

Floracliff depends on volunteers who participate at least twice each month during weekday mornings/afternoons. New Volunteer Orientations are offered annually. Ongoing training is offered for committed volunteers. Detailed descriptions of ongoing volunteering opportunities can be found here: floracliff.org/volunteers
