Volunteer

There are many opportunities to volunteer with IAE throughout the year, whether in the Northwest (Oregon) or Southwest (New Mexico) area of the country. Volunteers work with us on a number of projects, including rare plant monitoring, seed collecting and cleaning, planting events, native plant propagation, invasive species removal, data entry, chaperoning field trips, and more! Together, we can help IAE grow and advance our mission. As volunteers, you are a vital part of the IAE community, and your service will ensure our native habitats will thrive. A huge thank you in advance, for joining us!
