Volunteers planting native speicies.

  • Saturday, March 20, 2021
  • 9:30 AM–11:30 AM
  • Off Campus
  • FREE

We are happy to be approved to offer outdoor service experiences for Calvin students, staff and faculty this spring. Without the ability to host community volunteers, we will greatly appreciate your assistance. No experience is necessary; we provide simple training.

Join us as we mix soil, transplant native plant seedlings and plugs into pots, weed, and number plant sale tags in preparation for our native plant sale and restoration projects.

We meet rain or shine.

Registration REQUIRED: Opportunities are limited to enable social distancing, so please register before attending. You are welcome to come late or leave early as your schedule allows, just let us know your availability when you sign up so we can greet you when you arrive.

Be prepared: Please bring a water bottle and mask. Dress in layers for the weather as the greenhouse can be warm and also some days we will be working outside. Tools are provided but bring your own work gloves if you prefer. Restrooms, water and hand sanitizer will be available.
