Conservancy Fall Stewardship Events

As temperatures slowly begin to cool, Fall is the perfect time for stewardship activities at the Conservancy, and we need your help! We have something for everyone, from trail building to native species plantings to trail clean-ups. Connect with the land and your local conservation community at one of our volunteer events below!

Saturday, September 28^th – Trail Building at Rimrock to Riverside with WTA and Friends of Palisades

Together, we’ll have fun, work hard, and make a difference!  No experience is necessary.
