Do you love to bake? Are you interested in working with other cooks?
Wildlands Restoration Volunteers (WRV) is looking for people who would like to contribute their culinary skills to help keep our hard-working volunteers well fed and fueled for project day! We often have 20-80 mouths to feed on project day, and there is never a more appreciative crowd for whatever delicious food you are able to provide.
We have multiple ways to get involved - everything from baking cookies to making pre-prepped food in the comfort of your own kitchen that we can freeze and thaw on project day to cooking in an outdoor kitchen in the backcountry on an overnight project.
Please contact Amy Gage at (970) 493-2075, extension 1# to discuss opportunities and learn more! You can also email amyg@wlrv.org.
WRV implements over 80 volunteer-led ecological restration projects a year along the Front Range. for more information about what we do, please visit www.wlrv.org.

Mission Statement
"To foster a community spirit of shared responsibility for the ecological stewardship and restoration of public and protected lands."
Description
WRV organizes about 110 projects per year, completing a wide variety of important habitat restoration and conservation work in around the Northern Colorado Front Range. Projects can be a single day, but some may last a weekend or longer with camping in spectacular mountain settings. Attendance averages 60 volunteers, but ranges from 10 to over 100. Tasty meals are usually provided, and no experience is necessary!
OUR GOALS- Create a strong network of volunteers capable of caring for these sites through trainings, educational opportunities, and partnerships with other local organizations.
- Encourage community-based involvement in projects by recruiting volunteers who live in communities near project sites and/or are members of user groups who frequent those sites.
- Develop and implement high quality, scientific restoration techniques. We aim to contribute to scientific field of ecological restoration.
- Collaborate closely with land managers and other stakeholders to identify key sites in need of ecological restoration.
- Serve a diverse audience including urban and rural residents, adults, middle and high school students, disadvantaged youth, local watershed protection groups, local outdoor clubs, and other recreational users of local public lands.
- Have fun, work hard, and celebrate the deep love of mountains, forests, streams, and open spaces, which motivates our work.
