The Nature Conservancy in Oregon is hosting an overnight work party at the Juniper Hills Preserve on Sept. 19.
Volunteers will work on restoration projects during the day and camp out on the Preserve overnight.
The Nature Conservancy will provide breakfast, lunch and dinner on Sept. 19 and breakfast on Sept. 20, but volunteers are responsible for bringing food beyond that and for dinner on Friday night should they choose to camp out before work begins.
“Each event like this is unique,” volunteer coordinator Gardiner Miller said. “We host 12-15 overnight events each year. We have a lot of repeat volunteers who like to travel around the state with us, but we also welcome any and all newcomers.”
