The Watershed Institute is looking for volunteers to help us protect and restore the natural habitats in our 950-acre Watershed Reserve. Through our popular Adopt-a-Plot Program, you can become a steward of a plot of land near our Hickory Loop Boardwalk. By “adopting” a plot, you and your family or group will be assigned a specific section of the forest to tend at your own pace and time.
In many portions of the Reserve, natural habitats are being undermined by non-native (“invasive”) plant species that compete with the native flora. We need volunteers who can commit to tending to their assigned plot on a regular basis (twice a month is ideal, but we value whatever time you can commit) and for an extended period of time (at least a year, although plots are active mid-March – mid-November). We have plots ready to be adopted; join us to help us restore our habitat and promote the health of native species of flora and fauna.
