Sign up now with the Western PA Conservancy to help plant trees along streets and trails and in parks and restoration areas throughout Western Pennsylvania or to become a Community Garden Steward.
Tree Plantings
Every spring and fall, WPC needs help from volunteers to plant hundreds of trees around the region. When you plant trees, you are helping create a green and healthy region. You’ll also learn about different types of native trees and tree care.

Garden Stewards
Have you ever seen a WPC garden and wondered how it stays looking colorful, strong and healthy? A loyal crew of volunteers known as Garden Stewards cares for the Conservancy’s many gardens. After spring planting, Garden Stewards help water, weed and clean up the areas. Stewards work from spring to fall.
