The Western Pennsylvania Conservancy seeks Riparian Steward Volunteers in Armstrong, Erie, Forest, Indiana, Jefferson, Potter and Venango counties.
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.
