Opportunities

Land Stewardship

SELT needs help in establishing and maintaining trails, removing invasive species, and keeping a watchful eye on our lands. Volunteers for this program visit our owned-lands on a regular basis and report back on observations and help with medium-duty management activities like trail clearing. Volunteers are also invited to participate in larger group work days that are scheduled throughout the year on different properties.

Easement Monitoring

With more than 160 properties and 8,300+ acres of open spaces protected by conservation easements, volunteers are critical to our ability to monitor and enforce our easements. Easement monitors visit the same property (or properties) annually, meet with landowners, observe its condition, and report back observations to the Land Trust.
