Excellent people, rewarding physical work

Meet, work, and become friends with other volunteers with diverse backgrounds and life experience who share your passion for giving back to your community and the majesty of nature. Use UTVs, hand tools, brush trimmers, chainsaws, to grade or smooth a trail surface or place water bars across a trail to assist with drainage control so that trails don’t erode. The work does involve manual labour – lifting, pushing, rolling objects, hiking – so having a decent level of fitness is important.
