Volunteering at the Ecology Park

Volunteers play an important role at the Ecology Park. They lend a hand with just about everything that happens at the Park! Some of the things the Ecology Park's volunteers do include:

• tending gardens
• writing signs
• potting and watering plants
• planning special events
• making displays or costumes
• researching gardening or land stewardship
• collecting seeds
• assisting with ecological restoration projects

Volunteering is a great opportunity to meet great people and learn new skills. Every Wednesday from April through October is a volunteer drop-in day at the Ecology Park, anytime between 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM.

Anyone who'd like to help, but is not available on Wednesdays, should call Peterborough Green-Up at (705) 745-3238, or stop by to speak with Ecology Park staff to arrange a suitable time to lend a hand.

The Ecology Park also welcomes the assistance of secondary students looking for opportunities to complete their community service hours.
