Friends of Trees is seeking new Crew Leaders for the upcoming October-April planting season! Being a Crew Leader is a great way to meet people, develop valuable leadership skills and, of course, learn how to plant trees the right way.

Crew Leaders are one of our most important volunteer roles as they help teach our volunteers how to plant trees and work together as a team. During our planting season, each crew leader commits to guiding small groups of planters at four Saturday morning plantings throughout the planting season. We have almost 70 public planting events scheduled this season.

Click here to register for a training.

You'll wear a Friends of Trees vest at weekend plantings and receive the respect and admiration of the volunteers on your crew, as well as receive a coveted Tree Team t-shirt and great food (a hallmark of all of our planting events).

Join this fun and energetic team by signing up for a required one-day training. To register for the training, or for more information, express interest in this opportunity and we'll follow up with training date details!

Volunteer Trail Work Party
Camp Wilkerson, Columbia County
Saturday, October 11

Trailkeepers of Oregon is helping at Camp Wilkerson on October 11 to continue our long-term improvement of their hiking trails. We'll be working on water issues to fix muddy trails before the rainy season starts, working on drainage on a steep trail.

Camp Wilkerson is a campground in Columbia County between Vernonia and Scappose with a network of hiker and horse trails. Join us to help our hiking friends in Columbia County. There is free camping available for this work party including rain shelters in case there is rainy weather.

No prior trail work experience is needed. TKO provides tools, safety equipment and training. You will need to provide your own food and camping gear (if you want to camp). This is car camping with only a short walk to the work site.
