We’ll be weeding, putting down mulch, and cleaning up trash to help the site look its best and support the native plants growing there.

No registration required, just show up. Bring gloves and hand tools of your choice. Light refreshments provided.

Volunteering at the Jane Weber Arboretum

Monthly, we have our Second Saturday Work Party from 9am to noon. We often work on bigger projects and refreshments are always served.

Generally, our volunteers work on an area that is special to them or they just see a need to spruce things up.

We have three main volunteer areas. The Arboretum which encompasses the property grounds, The Stanger House restoration and the Caboose restoration.

• Our volunteers show up rain or shine. Extreme weather can cancel plans.

• For more information, email us at weberarboretum@gmail.com

Overview: The E. Jane Weber Arboretum is devoted to preserving this treasured natural resource and historic site in honor of Dr. Vinson and E. Jane Weber, who dedicated their homestead and lovely botanical garden to being a learning experience and inspiration – a legacy for others to cherish. To fulfill their dream, an entity was set up to oversee the arboretum and subsequently a non-profit to manage, protect and enhance this revered property along the Columbia River with outreach to the community, offering education and related activities that will be a shared commitment to the vision and purpose of the E. Jane Weber Arboretum. Watch this video for more information.

Accessibility note: the trails and grounds are natural surface and not always ADA compliant.

What could be better than a weekend of stewardship at Mount St. Helens?

Each day will start with an opportunity to tend the trails on the east side of the Monument -- and will end with a campout complete with guest speakers, s'mores, and plenty of good company. Feel free to bring your family, and join us for one, two, or all three days!

This Jamboree is a partnership between WTA and the Mount St. Helens Institute (MSHI).

These work parties will be opened for registration on May 1 around 4pm.

Last year, we were able to invite nearly everyone off the waitlist, so if you are committed to this event, put yourself on the waitlist and think happy thoughts:)

** If you are a WTA volunteer Crew Leader and want to help, please reach out to SW Regional Coordinator Stasia Honnold, shonnold@wta.org**

About the Area: The east side of Mount St. Helens is less trafficked than the Johnston Ridge Observatory side, but not in any way less spectacular. From the amazing views from Strawberry Mountain to the Mount Margaret Backcountry and its plethora of sapphire lakes, from a trail down to Spirit Lake to the Boundary Trail that you can follow for another 40 miles out of the blast zone and back into the big trees, this area has it all!

What to Expect: We'll have fun, work hard and make a difference! Volunteer on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, or all three. No experience is necessary.

Project Description: Each morning, we will split into several different crews to work on several trails in the area. You will start at Wakepish Sno-Park/Picnic Area to get organized, then caravan to the work location. The work will include using cutting tools (including power tools if fire precaution levels permit) to remove vegetation from the trail corridor, using digging tools to fix the walking surface of the trail, and using digging tools to clear drainage.

Please register for the specific day(s) you are planning to volunteer, and we will split into separate crews for each day onsite.

Hiking Information: Each day will be different depending on how the work goes, and you will be able to self-select into a crew with an expected level of exertion that matches your available energy. Be prepared for options ranging from a hike of 1.5 miles round trip to a hike of 4.5 miles round trip over hilly terrain.

Camping Information: We will have a large camping area set up at Wakepish Sno-Park/Picnic Area. You are welcome to camp the day before and after your stewardship; trailers, campers, and tents all welcome.

There is no potable water onsite, though there is a nearby stream from which you can filter or treat water.

Schedule:

• 8:00 AM: Be ready to meet the crew. Please make sure your electronic waiver has already been signed before the work party!

• 8:05 AM: Gather for a safety briefing, then hike to the project site

• Morning: Work at your own pace, and take breaks throughout the day

• 12:00 PM: Lunch on the trail

• Afternoon: Consider trying a new task before wrapping up the day's work

• 3:00 PM: The end! Relax and, if you're camping, spend the afternoon soaking up the area.

For safety reasons, arriving late or leaving early is not allowed.

Special Event:

This work party is made possible by a special partnership between WTA and the Mount St. Helens Institute. We will have guest speakers on both Friday and Saturday evening (attendance optional) who will talk about the 1980 eruption, scientific research on the volcano, and the history of trails in the area. There will be lawn games (attendance also optional). You provide your own food; we will provide a campfire (depending on fire regulations at the time) and s'mores.

BirdFest and Bluegrass is the main event every year that the Friends of Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge & the City of Ridgefield put on to bring awareness to Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge, and all that it has to offer.

We celebrate the Sandhill Crane returning to the Refuge, a huge stately bird that is endangered in Washington State, and we celebrate everything the Refuge is and what it brings to the community. With endangered species, hundreds of migratory species, an auto tour route, photo blind, walking trails, habitat restoration programs, and so much more – there is a lot to celebrate, and a lot to learn.

We are uniquely fortunate to have the Refuge as a resource right in our own backyard, and by learning not only how to appreciate the beauty, but the necessity of it, you come one step closer to being able to support it.

Whether you head downtown to jam with bluegrass bands, shop, or do crafts, take a drive around the Refuge’s Auto Tour, or head to the Carty Unit for family crafts, guided hikes, or a walk on the trail- there is something for everyone, and lots to learn!
