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:

  1. Only a certain number of people will be allowed in each garden area. Be prepared to grow where you’re planted (work where you’re most needed)!
  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 Chapterat the Forest.

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

TMN Tuesdays @ Webinar
Apr 13 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm

All events for #TMNTuesdaysOn the Second Tuesday of each month at the noon hour (12 PM Central Standard Time), the TMN State Office will offer an hour-long virtual advanced training event (sometimes including some fantastic new and returning guest speakers).

One of the great things about TMN Tuesdays is the fact that they count for AT, even if you view them after the fact. So, if you didn’t get to see them the first time around, there’s still time to view them and have them count for AT!
