It’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 Chapter at the Forest.

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

VMS: RM: WG Jones State Forest (Specify garden or nursery maintenance)

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.

If you’re interested in volunteering for the Natural Resource Management Program, email kelli.ondracek@houstontx.gov or visit houstontx.gov/parks/naturalresources.html.
