WG Jones Volunteer Service | Citizens Environmental CoalitionIt’s time to volunteer again! You know you want to, but you know there are rules, right? So here they are:

  2. You must supply your own gloves and tools.
  3. Park at the education building, not in front of the office.
  4. If you are more comfortable wearing a face mask, you are more than welcome to.
  5. Limits on the number of people should allow for 6 feet social distancing. Be mindful of the distance.
  6. As always, bring adequate sun protection and water.
  7. If you have been exposed to COVID-19, please quarantine for 14 days before joining Texas Master Naturalists – Heartwood Chapter at the Forest.

Volunteer slots begin at 9 am and end at noon.  Contact heartwoodvsp@gmail.com for the latest plans.

HPARD’s Greenhouse Workday @ Memorial Park Greenhouse
Apr 22 @ 9:00 am – 12:00 pm

Volunteers meet the second and fourth Thursday of every month to propagate plants from locally collected native seed. A typical workday may include seeding pots, bumping up trays into 1-gallon containers, separating seedlings, and weeding pots. They will also have special seed collecting trips, invasive species removal workdays, and planting events in restored prairies.
