Stewardship

Join our hands-on conservation efforts to protect and restore wild places through activities like trail maintenance, habitat restoration, and invasive species removal. Our stewardship volunteers help maintain the health and accessibility of New Mexico's wilderness areas. Held across the state, these events can span a few hours to several days.
