Adopt-a-Preserve
Volunteer regularly by adopting your own preserve! Help Wildlands monitor our most visited properties. Once you complete our brief training program, you can volunteer on your own schedule and submit reports electronically. For this opportunity, we request a commitment to monitor your preserve on a monthly basis.
Hike Leader Program
Wildlands Trust offers a wide variety of public programming that serves to connect our communities to the natural world. Guided hikes are some of our most popular public programs, providing an opportunity for residents to explore Wildlands Trust trails with a trusted leader who can impart knowledge of the outdoors, information about the preserve, and keep them safe on the trails. Wildlands Trust relies on trained and trusted volunteers to expand guided hike offerings by leading and sweeping hikes at preserves across Southeastern Massachusetts.
Contact Amy Burt (aburt@wildlandstrust.org) with questions.
Interested in becoming a volunteer Hike Leader? Please complete the following application for consideration. All hike leaders undergo a training program designed to provide volunteers with the tools and know-how to safely and effectively lead and sweep hikes and to represent Wildlands Trust to the public. Hike leaders must maintain a basic first aid & CPR certification and support 3 hikes per year. Future applications will be considered on a rolling basis. Hikers are welcome to apply!
NEW! Wildlands Trust Ambassadors
Wildlands Trust offers a wide variety of public programs and communications that serve to connect Southeastern Massachusetts communities to the natural world. By tabling at public events, presenting to clubs and other organizations, promoting our work on social media, and more, we create opportunities for residents to learn about Wildlands—and in turn, support our mission as donors and volunteers. Ambassadors will volunteer their time, enthusiasm, and connections to help grow Wildlands' outreach capacity and expand our base of support.
