Conservation Volunteer Category Conservation & Restoration Description Conservation volunteers help our conservation team with ecological restoration and research projects on Wednesdays with both a morning and afternoon shift available. Most work occurs at Oxbow, though off-site opportunities sometimes pop up. Helping with projects such as weeding, planting, and conducting research will likely require hiking, bushwhacking, digging, and generally getting dirty and sweaty in all weather conditions, so volunteers should come prepared! Volunteers can choose to participate on a weekly or monthly schedule or participate off-and-on as their schedule allows. Second Saturday Restoration Party: April 8th 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Date 04/08/2023 - 04/08/2023 Category Conservation & Restoration Location Oxbow Farm & Conservation Center 10819 Carnation-Duvall Rd NE Meet at the Farm Stand Carnation, WA 98014 United States of America King Description Join Oxbow’s Conservation Team at our Saturday restoration work party! On the 2nd Saturday of each month we get together to learn about and improve critical habitats for plants and wildlife and help combat climate change. Work happens outdoors, rain or shine, and focuses on a particular project and/or location, such as planting trees and digging up blackberries. With your help, we can help bring back salmon (and orcas!) and rebuild a resilient landscape that supports people’s livelihoods, produces food, and remains beautiful and ecologically diverse! Work parties are limited to 20 volunteers. Ages 12 to 14 are welcome with an adult volunteer. Volunteers age 15 and up may come on their own.
