Note: If you are interested in volunteering with WRV with a group, please contact us.

We rely on individual volunteers and partnering groups to help us implement our restoration projects, which consist of removing invasive vegetation and planting a mix of native trees and shrubs. Over the years, thousands of trees and shrubs have been planted and countless amounts of exotic invasive plant species have been removed, thanks to the work of volunteers!
