Do you enjoy leading, teaching, and motivating others? Are you interested in taking on a leadership role? Do you care about the environment and want to make a lasting impact? If you answered yes to any of these, then sign up today to become a Great River Greening Volunteer Supervisor!
Great River Greening holds approximately 30 events per year where the general public, corporate groups, and youth groups come together to restore portions of green space in the Twin Cities metro area. At each of our events, we segment volunteers into work groups with one or two Volunteer Supervisors leading, training, and motivating the others throughout the event.
Our Volunteer Supervisors tell us it's tremendously satisfying to help others learn about the environment while making tangible improvements to our urban landscape. Anyone is welcome to become a Supervisor; no previous knowledge or experience is required, we will teach you all you need to know!
Who are Great River Greening's Volunteer Supervisors?
Great River Greening's Volunteer Supervisors are the gears of our events. They are the motivators and initiators leading work groups at restoration events. Supervisors provide on-the-job training to work groups consisting of 5-15 restoration volunteers. Work includes, but is not limited to, planting, invasive plant removal, erosion control, and native seed collection/sewing. In addition, Volunteer Supervisors lead smaller projects throughout the year and educate community groups on issues related to ecological conservation and restoration.

This training has limited capacity. Please RSVP to receive more information about the training, including location.
