Advance registration is required, and space is limited: David Douglas Park Volunteer RSVP
Join the City of Vancouver’s volunteers from our Adopt-A-Park program for a morning of ivy removal at David Douglas Park. This project will help clear space for volunteers to plant over 800 native plants in January, 2027!
Training, gloves, tools, water, and snacks will be provided. This opportunity is family-friendly and great for teens. Volunteers should dress for the weather and wear long pants and closed-toe shoes. Youth under 18 must bring a signed minor consent form.
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. For ivy removal projects, volunteers may be kneeling, pulling, and twisting as well as possibly lifting plants overhead to load into a dumpster. 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 already closed and you still want to register, please email cityvolunteer@cityofvancouver.us to let us know you will be a walk-up and you can sign in on-site.
