Stewardship Volunteer Workday

Join us every other Thursday from 9am-12pm to make friends and challenge your muscles while enjoying WNC’s beautiful scenery! Whether it’s building bridges and maintaining trails on one of our preserves or removing invasive species and planting trees on an easement property, volunteering with Mainspring will give you a chance to explore, protect, and restore the well-known spots and hidden gems of this region. There are opportunities to use all sorts of fun tools, from chainsaws to sledgehammers to good old fashioned elbow grease!

Location and duties vary per workday. This Thursday, we’ll be at Tessentee Bottomland Preserve in Franklin adding new steps and de-rooting a section of trail. To receive regular emails about the details of upcoming workdays, please fill out our volunteer form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfjtRt0TSWTaIfcXSJi-G6Pxx_iyyggpZL8IQ4xGmiQ5T8XdQ/viewform

Want to help protect the special places we know and love, but aren’t sure you’re up for digging in the dirt? We have indoor, low-exertion volunteer opportunities too! Check them out here: https://www.mainspringconserves.org/be-a-mainspring/volunteer/
