Registration is required. Ivy Removal and Tree Planting at Behren Woods Volunteer RSVP.
Join the City of Vancouver’s Volunteer Programs department and our Naturespaces volunteers for a morning of caring for the land at Behrens Woods. We’ll be removing ivy to improve the health of the forest, and we’ll also plant a few trees!
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. There is no bathroom at this location.
Accessibility is important to us and we’ve taken it into account while planning this event. This location is not wheelchair accessible, and work is primarily done in a quiet natural area with potential for some infrequent loud work sounds. For weed removal projects, volunteers may be kneeling, pulling, and twisting as well as possibly lifting plants overhead to load into a dumpster. Tree planting requires 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 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.
