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…
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.
Volunteers are needed to help with light office tasks, including the stuffing envelopes but also scanning, copying, filing, database entry, and related tasks. Volunteers are also needed for photography, outreach efforts, and fundraising events.
Do you love to talk with people and share your love of the outdoors? Do you know plant, wildlife, or geology identification like the back of your hand? Do you have oral histories about local properties to share? If so, the GOAT program is for you!
