Volunteering opportunities — Friends of Baltimore Woods

WE NEED YOU. We’re a happy group, here at FoBW. We work well together, we get a lot done, and we do a lot of laughing. There’s nothing like the satisfaction of preserving another piece in the puzzle that is Baltimore Woods, and then getting it started on the road to restoration. Seeing wildflowers blooming in what was a parking lot, and baby white oaks planted that will be giant white oaks shading a whole ecosystem a couple of generations down the road. But in the last couple of years it just happens that several of the most active FoBW members have had family medical disasters and have needed to step back some. We’re still getting a lot done, but we need more people to pick up the slack!

Note: Guidance and support for all projects are provided by Friends of Baltimore Woods and our partner organizations. Many of these are perfect family activities!
