ORGANIZATION: The Trustees of Reservations

The Appleton Farms Livestock team is looking for a volunteer to help with hose repair and other general fixes around the barn. As a Hose Fixer, volunteers will go through all of the livestock hoses, fix any leaks, and make sure that they all have working connecting ends. We are hoping to have someone to get them all sorted for the livestock team before we start using them in the spring time!

We will provide tools, hose parts, and fittings for the volunteers work in the dairy barn. The right fit for this volunteer role will be able to use tools, know how to fix hoses, and work independently. We are hoping that a volunteer will be able to stay on and help with additional repairs that could use woodworking, plumbing, or electrical repair skills!

About The Trustees of Reservations

Location:

200 High Street, Boston, MA 02110, US

Mission Statement

The Trustees of Reservations is here to protect and share the Massachusetts places people love for their exceptional scenic, historic, and ecological value. For their trails, their history, their gardens, their beaches. For the simple reason that nature and culture can soothe the soul and improve our lives.

Description

Who We Are

We are more than 100,000 people like you who love the outdoors, who love the distinctive charms of New England, and who believe in celebrating and protecting them, for everyone, forever.

Together with our neighbors, we protect the distinct character of our communities and inspire a commitment to our special places. Our passion is to share with everyone the irreplaceable natural and cultural treasures we care for.

What We Do

We enjoy and care for more than 100 special places - nearly 25,000 acres - all around Massachusetts. And we are actively building an extended family of friends and neighbors across the state that can help in their different ways.

What We Are Up Against

Through more than 100 years of hard work and high standards, The Trustees have built a sterling reputation and a stunning physical legacy.

Today, the places we care about are going fast, and the forces undermining them, including climate change, are moving faster. We need to tap the wellspring of people’s joy - in their communities, their heritage, and the natural world - and mobilize a whole new generation to care.
