For 32 years, volunteers managed ACRES Land Trust.
Today, this spirit of community service is alive and well here at ACRES. With only nine staff members supporting our work in 27 counties full time, we rely on volunteer support to serve our community.
Explore our opportunities below!
Check out the upcoming workdays and cleanups that take place at ACRES preserves. The events are updated every season and may include litter cleanups, invasive species workdays and or native seed collections.
Cleanups and workdays are open to the public and do not require a volunteer application to join.
Schedule a workday with us for your club, company or team. Workdays can involve litter cleanups, invasive plant removal, seed collections, outreach projects and more. The time, location and activity are flexible.
