Creating and participating in volunteer opportunities addresses one of the greatest health challenges of our time.
At Rivers & Lands Conservancy, we felt the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown in ways we could not have imagined. So much of our work to beautify and restore our natural, wild and open spaces depends on volunteers. So many of the relationships we treasure are built on the land with our volunteer community. Yet, for the span of nearly two years, these efforts were halted until it was safe to get together again.
