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.

Camp volunteer training will be hosted on the farm on June 20th, from 4-8PM. Alternate training dates available as needed!

Support any of our 5 week-long day camp sessions in 2023, for dates & full descriptions see: http://www.oxbow.org/education/summercamp/. Committing to a full camp week (Mon-Fri 8am-4pm) is ideal but we are happy to work with your schedule as needed. Volunteering for summer camp is typically available to those ages 15 and up, but we are open to making exceptions on a case by case basis. Please email camp@oxbow.org or call 425-788-1134 x1 if you have any additional questions, thanks!
