Become a Preserve Steward or Trail Monitor
Our Stewardship Team plans regular work parties to clear trails, maintain trails, and monitor preserve boundaries. Trail Monitors choose to help remove small brush and fallen branches from the trails they regularly use and report any issues that need the more involved work of the Stewardship Team.
