Our mission	Inspiring Conservation.

Opportunities	Native Plant Propagation Program Volunteer One of the Nature Center’s newest projects, the goal of this initiative is to develop a resource for acquiring native plants, shrubs, and trees for habitat restoration projects on CNC lands. Volunteers will work with staff in harvesting and processing seed from our forest and fields. Seed collection work occurs primarily from September through November. Other tasks may occur throughout the year as needed. This activity will require hiking out to locations and walking through tall fields potentially with thorns, mosquitoes, tics, other insects, burs, etc. Occasional, Monthly Teens, 55+, Adults, Child with Adult Individuals, Groups (2-10), Families Physical, Outdoor On-site Weekdays Land Steward Since 2008, land stewardship staff and volunteers have treated over 500 acres of invasive species such as Amur “bush” honeysuckle, oriental bittersweet, multi-flora rose, autumn olive, and garlic mustard. Work individually or as part of a group to enhance natural habitat on a designated parcel of CNC land. Projects will be cutting or removing invasive plants using hand tools, and applying herbicides as needed to prevent re-growth.
