Prairie Partner Volunteers
Five Rivers MetroParks’ Prairie Partner volunteers implement a major part
of the restoration plans of the land stewardship program. This group is for gardeners
who love the feel and smell of fresh soil in their hands.
Volunteer Opportunities
Prairie Partner volunteers primarily assist with greenhouse production tasks, such
as: care of native plants, watering, fertilizing and transplanting seedlings and
prepping them for planting in the nursery or directly into their habitat. Volunteers
also help the seed nursery manager maintain the flower beds throughout the spring
and summer and help with the harvest in the fall. Seed harvested from the nursery
and surrounding prairies is processed, cleaned and stored for planting the following
year.
