Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteering with us is an excellent way to actively contribute to our mission and make a tangible impact on local conservation efforts.

Pines and Prairies Land Trust is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that offers a variety of volunteer opportunities for individuals, groups, and corporations or businesses, both ongoing and sporadic.

Some positions are specialized and require particular talents, knowledge, skills, and abilities. Other positions only require a desire and willingness to volunteer. Individuals under the age of 18 must have written consent of the parent or legal guardian before they may volunteer.

Check out our events page for upcoming work days.

Whether your passion lies in hands-on outdoor work, event coordination, or educational outreach, we have opportunities available!
