Looking for a unique volunteer opportunity? You can help improve habitat for wildlife at Mission Valley Preserve, a 52-acre wildlife preserve right in San Diego! Volunteers will help to remove non-native plant species, creating a healthy environment for the plants and animals that call our river home.
This is the perfect opportunity to learn more about river ecology and witness a physical transformation of the landscape, which translates into improving our environment and the health of our River! Volunteer tasks include hand pulling, hoeing, chopping, hauling, digging, trimming, and more. We are especially seeking volunteers with QAC/QAL herbicide application certification. All tools and supplies are provided.
Weekly meetings will be held at Mission Valley Preserve. Exact meeting location (North or South side of the River) will change depending on the event. Please RSVP to learn more and get meeting instructions.
Volunteers must be at least 18 years of age. Community service may be verified, but only for students needing to complete school assigned hours. For more information and to get involved please contact us at 619-297-7380 or steffani@sandiegoriver.orgMore opportunities with The San Diego River Park Foundation
