Forest Stewardship Volunteer Opportunity

Come join us at New Jersey Audubon’s Scherman Hoffman Wildlife Sanctuary to volunteer and help our staff manage our forest! Theses in-person volunteer days allow you to get hands-on experience in caring for our beautiful forests. Help maintain trails, and learn about and remove invasive species. No experience necessary – just bring your enthusiasm and willingness to help out! Don’t miss this chance to make a positive impact on the environment and connect with like-minded individuals. Sign up now to secure your spot!

This will be a recurring event. Please register for one or more days!

Please make sure to wear long sleeves and plants , bring bug spray & sunscreen, Please wear comfortable clothes, shoes that can get muddy, and bring a water bottle. We will be using gloves, hand clippers, pruners, loppers and our hands to pull invasives. If you have a preferred set you enjoy using at home please bring them.

You will be asked to fill out a volunteer form upon arrival. Please meet in our upper parking lot near the garage doors.
