Description


Celebrate Earth Month with Your Team - Make a Real Impact!
Is your company looking for a meaningful way to give back this Earth Month? Bring your corporate group outdoors to Wachusett Meadow and volunteer your time to protect, restore, and steward our natural space. Please note: Earth Month group volunteer opportunities are designed for corporate and organized groups and include a request for philanthropic support alongside hands-on service.


Volunteer Project Includes:
Trail maintenance and invasive species removal. Volunteers will use provided hand tools to clear windfall debris and encroaching vegetation adjacent to trails and remove invasive species to restore priority habitat.

This project is part of Mass Audubon's year-round stewardship efforts, which combine volunteer engagement, staff expertise, and sustained investment to care for our sanctuaries and wildlife habitats. Your team will enjoy a collaborative, outdoor and hands-on experience that strengthens bonds, promotes connection with nature, and delivers a lasting positive impact at the local level.

Details:

This opportunity is available April 10, 2026, for a group of up to 10 volunteers. Volunteers will engage in a variety of physical tasks, so please let us know if there are any accommodations needed so that all members of your group can participate.

To prepare for the day:

  • Wear outdoor work clothing suitable for the weather that day (long pants and long sleeves are recommended).
  • Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes comfortable for walking.
  • Bring a water bottle, insect repellent, a hat, and sunscreen.
  • Participants will walk to and from the work site for a total distance of 2 miles.

Contribute & Support:

Earth Month group volunteer opportunities are made possible through both volunteer effort and philanthropic support. For corporate and organized group participating in Earth Month, a financial contribution is a requested part of the experience and helps sustain the land stewardship, tools, staff time, and materials that make these projects possible. Most groups support their volunteer day with a company gift in the range of $500-$2,500 or more depending on group size and scope. After you express interest, our team will follow up to confirm details and share simple steps for making your group's contribution.
