Volunteer Opportunities
Field Opportunities
Shoreline Restoration
Plant native vegetation and restore marshes at our living shoreline demonstration projects. Plantings are scheduled in the spring and early summer at various locations along the coast.
 
Oyster Restoration
Volunteers can help bag oyster shells that are used to build reefs, relay oyster bags, seed oyster reefs and monitor established reefs. Oyster Restoration events occur along the coast throughout the year.
Shoreline and oyster restoration days are dependent on the weather, tides and the completion of site preparation. We alert volunteers to coming projects and call with specific assignments three to five days in advance.
