This opportunity is subject to conditions as the Refuge is following local and national CDC health guidelines related to COVID-19. Please email deerflat@fws.gov to learn more.

Hang out with the cottontails and the quail while you help maintain wildlife-friendly landscaping at the Deer Flat National Wildlife Refuge. We have a drought-tolerant garden, a pollinator garden, and other wildlife-friendly landscaping around the Refuge Visitor Center. Weeds grow, shrubs get bigger, plants die, etc. So we are always looking for volunteers to help weed, prune, etc.

No experience needed; we provide training.
