The Nature Center is open every  Saturday & Sunday from 1 – 4 pm from April through December.

Volunteer to be a weekend host.  Our weekend hosts greet the public, answer the phone and handle gift shop sales.  A volunteer newsletter is sent out bi-annually with recent updates and happenings at the Nature Center.

Volunteer to care for and weed flower gardens:  From April through October, we are looking for volunteers to weed the flower gardens at the Nature Center.  If you want to do it for a day, month, or several months, please give us a call.
