Are you a service organization or company looking for volunteer opportunities outdoors? 

Heckrodt Wetland Reserve provides many ways to give back to your community. Whether it is 2 people or 30 people (for 2 hours to a full day), we welcome all group sizes and abilities.  Some opportunities include controlling invasive species, trail maintenance, Wild Space general upkeep, public program prep, planting native plants, and other various activities needed around the Reserve.  We look forward to working with you to make our community a better place to live, work, and play.

If this sounds like something your group would be interested in, please contact Emma Neuman at [email protected]
