Great River Greening engages thousands of volunteers each year in hands-on restoration, environmental conservation, and community science-based programming. Our volunteer events take place across Minnesota, with a focus on the Twin Cities metro area, central Minnesota (from Blaine to Brainerd), and throughout Southern Minnesota.
We invite you to join our dedicated Volunteer Supervisor team as we expand restoration efforts across the state. As a Volunteer Supervisor, you'll develop valuable leadership and restoration skills while helping to lead and motivate groups of volunteers at our spring and fall restoration events.
Become a Volunteer Supervisor and help lead habitat restoration efforts with Great River Greening!
Volunteer Supervisors oversee small groups of around 10 volunteers during hands-on restoration projects. These activities typically include planting native grasses and forbs, tree and shrub planting, controlling invasive species, and broadcasting seeds.
The in-person training will be held at our main office in St. Paul.
In-person training is August 18 or join us virtually on August 20th, 2026 for an online training session!
No scientific or natural resource experience? No problem! While knowledge in these areas is helpful, it is not required. All training and resources will be provided. Gain new skills while making a real difference in Minnesota's natural spaces.
