SUMMARY:National Public Lands Day - Native Plant Reseeding Volunteer Event
DESCRIPTION:Join us on a native plant seeding project to help restore plant communities and habitat after fire!\n\n\n\n\nProject Description: \nIn honor of National Public Lands Day\, you can make a meaningful contribution to RMNP’s biodiversity while gaining experience in conservation practices! \nThe Vegetation Program at Rocky Mountain National Park restores disturbed sites throughout the park to preserve native vegetation\, protect our soils\, and prevent the spread of invasives species. We respond to areas that have been degraded by construction\, human use\, or severe natural events. Established in the 1980s and guided by a management plan\, our program focuses on using locally collected native plant materials to ensure ecological integrity. \nJoin us and be part of preserving the natural beauty of the park for future generations! \nWhat to Expect: \nVolunteers will be reseeding small fire scars created during pile burning for fuels reduction. Locations will include Deer Mountain and Lily Lake\, and work occurs in exposed conditions (full sun\, rain\, wind). Reseeding involves hiking short distances up to several miles\, scarifying soil (raking)\, hand seeding at specific rates\, and gathering and spreading on-site mulch material. \nDate: This project has 2 sessions: Sept. 25 and Sept. 28. Volunteer once or on both dates! \nTime: 9:00am – 3:00pm. Volunteers should plan to stay for the full duration of this event. \nWho: This volunteer event is open to participants ages 18 and over. \nParking/meeting location: Please meet in the outdoor plaza in front of the Beaver Meadows Visitor Center. Volunteers will be driven into the park via a shuttle. \nWork sites: Deer Mountain and Lily Lake. Sites may change depending on conditions. \nNearest bathroom: Bathrooms may be inaccessible for most of the event period. Be prepared to answer nature’s call in nature. \nWhat to bring: Layers for rapidly changing weather\, rain gear\, sun protection (sunscreen\, hat\, sunglasses)\, long sleeve shirt and long pants\, sturdy close-toed shoes\, lunch and snacks\, at least 2 liters of water per person\, gloves (if you prefer your own)\, and a day pack to hold everything. \n\n\nReady to sign up?\n\n\n \nQuestions? Please contact the park’s volunteer office at ROMO_volunteer@nps.gov or 970-586-1330.

SUMMARY:RMNP Nursery Winterization Volunteer Day
DESCRIPTION:Help Rocky Mountain National Park greenhouse staff get our nursery ready for winter!\n\n\n\n\n\nHelp Rocky Mountain National Park greenhouse staff get our nursery ready for winter! Volunteers will help remove shade cloth structures and tuck our plants into their beds with mulch to prepare them for the colder months. \nWhat to Expect: \nVolunteers removing shade cloths will need to be able to stand on a ladder. Mulching will involve kneeling\, stooping\, bending over\, use of hand tools\, and pushing wheelbarrows. Moving plants will involve light to heavy lifting of plant trays and pots. Don’t worry if you are unable to complete one of these tasks – they will be divided among staff and volunteers. \nWater will be available onsite for refills. Restrooms are a short walk away in the natural resources building. \nExpect the unexpected with fall weather – it could be sunny\, windy\, hot\, cold\, snowing\, and/or raining on the same day\, so prepare accordingly. \nWhere to Meet: We will meet in the outdoor plaza in front of Beaver Meadows Visitor Center. From there we will walkabout ¼ mile to the greenhouse down an asphalt path on a gentle to moderate hillside. The path is rough and uneven in places. The greenhouse is located at an elevation of around 7\,600 ft. \nWhat’s Provided: Work gloves\, sunscreen\, electrolyte mix\, water\, kneeling pads \nWhat to Bring: Layers\, long sleeves\, sturdy shoes\, rain gear\, sun protection (hat\, sunglasses)\, gloves (if you prefer your own)\, day pack\, lunch and snacks\, water bottle. \nMinimum age: 18 years \nWork site: Rocky Mountain National Park greenhouse and nursery \nNearest bathroom: Office building near greenhouse \nReady to sign up?\n\n\n\n  \nQuestions? Please contact the park’s volunteer office at ROMO_volunteer@nps.gov or 970-586-1330.
