Become A Proud Volunteer

Our volunteers are the heart, mind, and backbone of the organization. We could not do this important conservation work without their dedication and support to habitat and open space protection.

Though volunteering is hard work, it is also a chance to meet new people and spend time outdoors actively working to protect the treasured landscapes of Southeast Idaho.
