Beaver Brook Association

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

People volunteer for different reasons. One reason may be that we like to 'give back' to the community we live in. Another reason may be that we 'believe' in a particular organization, what it offers - what it achieves. If either of these reasons apply to you and your feelings towards Beaver Brook (and you have the time), then take a moment to think about volunteering some of your time at Beaver Brook this year. Listed below are areas where we could use your help:

Weed and maintain the corn, beans, pumpkins, and medicine plants in the Native American Garden.

Build a “wattle” twig fence for the Native American garden to discourage deer. Cut and weave saplings around 3 Sisters Garden.
