Volunteer opportunities are held at various parks and green spaces in the Delridge Neighborhood area, please check the website for specific locations.
You and your fellow volunteers will participate in fun, hands-on conservation work led by staff from Delridge Neighborhoods Development Association's Nature Team. Restoration work includes removing invasive plants, planting native species, and mulching new plantings, depending on the restoration progress in each site. DNDA-Nature Consortium is currently operating our volunteer events with additional COVID safety precautions. This includes limiting each event to a maximum of 5 participants and requiring all volunteers to pre-register ahead of time.
