Do you love being outdoors in all seasons? The Conservancy needs dedicated volunteers to check on streamside trees our staff and volunteers recently planted in rural areas.
Visit a site to ensure the tree tubes, stakes and young trees are sturdy, do light weeding and update staff on trees’ health.
To volunteer, contact Monica Lee at 724-471-7202 ext. 5111 or mlee@paconserve.org.
Visit WPC's Volunteer To Be A Riparian Steward webpage to learn more.
