Below, you’ll find specific dates for volunteer opportunities. If you’re available to contribute your time and expertise, simply sign up for a session that suits you, and we’ll be excited to connect.

LAND MANAGEMENT CREW
Led by our Land Manager
Join our dedicated Land Management Crew to help maintain the unique urban playa environment. Volunteer tasks include trail construction, habitat restoration, and other land improvement efforts. Volunteers can work alongside the crew or, once approved by the Land Manager, assist solo with projects like trash collection and invasive species removal.

INSTRUCTIONAL DOCENTS
Trained by our Education Director
Volunteer as an instructional docent to provide engaging, hands-on learning experiences. Our docents lead educational activities and inspire environmental stewardship in visitors of all ages. Help us bridge the gap between science and the public by leading interactive stations and supporting citizen science projects.

ADMINISTRATIVE TEAM
Coordinated by our Strategic Initiatives Director
If you have skills in photography, marketing, social media, or general office support, join our administrative team. Volunteers assist with marketing campaigns, event coordination, and other essential behind-the-scenes tasks that keep The Preserve’s programs running smoothly.
