Cultivate a beautiful community space by helping maintain the ornamental gardens at Willow-Witt Ranch. Located around the historic farmhouse, these gardens surround spaces used for education and community events. Tasks may include planting, trimming, weeding, transplanting, digging and mulching. Tasks will reflect the seasons and work to transform the garden into a high-quality habitat for wildlife and pollinators. No experience necessary!
Join us for a drop-in work party on the third Thursday of every month, April - October. No need to come every week, come when you can!
Get outside, meet others, learn about gardening at high altitudes in the Rogue Valley, and build a relationship with the land at Willow-Witt Ranch.
Masks and social distancing required while working in groups. All work will be outside. Hand sanitizer will be provided.
Desired skills:
- Support for The Crest's mission.

Mission Statement
We cultivate the integral connection between people and nature. We learn from nature the interdependence of humans and the air, soil, food, forest, and water upon which we all depend and the earth to which we all return.
Description
The Crest at Willow-Witt is an educational non-profit organization based at Willow-Witt Ranch, in the mountains of the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument east of Ashland, Oregon. Through self-guided tours, public events, school programs, and summer camps, we help visitors of all ages explore their roles and responsibilities in our dynamic local ecosystems.
The Crest offers wetland restoration and gardening volunteer work parties during the warmer months at Willow-Witt Ranch, April through October. We also provide Outdoor School programming to 5th and 6th graders in Southern Oregon, offer community education programs, and run several weeks of Nature Day Camps during the summer.
