We need volunteers!

• Fundraising – help with our annual fundraiser – Land on the Horizon, or brainstorm new ways for raising monies.
• Special projects – we have a Pollinator Project at the Charles & Albert Parker Families Nature Preserve next to the Brighton District Library. Spring through Fall, we are removing invasive plants, installing more natives, and working on a solarization area to remove stubborn turf grass so it can be restored.
• Outings – help conduct an informative hike or bird walk, etc., on one of our preserves to get the public engaged on our properties.

• Become a member for $25 – you can vote for the board of directors and even run as a candidate!
• Grant writing – research for eligible grants and then help with the writing and implementation.
