Accessibility is important to us and we’ve taken it into account while planning this event. Work is primarily done in a quiet natural area with potential for some infrequent loud work sounds. Planting will involve digging, bending and kneeling. There will be a space in the RSVP form for you to let us know if there are any accessibility needs you have so that we can do our best to find a volunteer role that will work for you.

Registration will close 24 hours prior to the event. If registration is closed and you are still interested in attending, please email cityvolunteer@cityofvancouver.us to let us know you will be a walk-up and you can sign in on-site.
