Volunteer: General Outdoor HelpAs the weather gets nicer we have more and more miscellaneous outdoor work we could use volunteer help with! Activities could include weeding flower gardens, transplanting plants, hanging outdoor signs, sanding outdoor furniture and much more! Work will mostly be outdoors, but bathrooms and an indoor break area as well as water and snacks will be readily available. Most tasks could be completed in small groups in an afternoon or a few hours, and we have very flexible scheduling.

Volunteer: GardeningThe Grail has several established flower and food beds--including a butterfly garden we plan to expand--across the property. Maintaining them does NOT require a Master Gardener certification, or even a "green thumb" just a desire to "dig in the dirt" and encourage beautiful things to grow. Weeding is the majority of the assignment time, but would include thinning, transplanting, and pruning. SOME over winter work needs to be done to prep spaces for growing season. Flexible scheduling available. Perfect for families!

Volunteer: Trail MaintenanceThe Grail welcomes the public to utilize our trails free of charge, year round, during the daylight hours. We believe the first step in caring for nature is to learn to love it, and to start by being out in it. During the early summer it is difficult to maintain a portion of the trails with a tractor, so we rely on volunteers to use weeders to ensure it is passable. This is best done by a team of 2 for a 4 hour block of time. This is not a difficult task, but is perfect for those who prefer to not volunteer in a group or to have interaction with the public.
