Are you interested in volunteering for us? Are you interested in plants or restoration projects? Come help us monitor our restoration plantings!

This workshop is a mandatory training for all volunteers and it will help prepare you for the monitoring season! But there is no obligation to volunteer if you attend the workshop. 

Volunteers will learn both native and invasive plant ID during the class. In addition to a PowerPoint presentation, volunteers will test their skills by identifying plants that come from the SFEG Native Plant Nursery. The monitoring portion of the class will teach volunteers about SFEG field protocols, including percent cover, transect data collection, and health ratings. In the afternoon volunteers will practice their skills at an SFEG planting along Carey’s Slough in west Hamilton.

You must bring your own lunch, but we will be providing light refreshments. Please dress for the weather, we will spend half our time outside.

This workshop is FREE and a really great opportunity to gain more plant knowledge. 

We also welcome those who are just interested in the workshop! There is no obligation to volunteer!
