Be A Volunteer
With nearly 6,000 acres of protected land, many sets of eyes, ears and hands are needed to monitor, preserve and maintain our special places in this world. Keeping our operation running smoothly and accurately takes many hours of record keeping and data input. Join us as we work to keep a treasure for generations to come.
Come to our Volunteer Info Event on March 19, 2024 at 5PM to learn about the variety of ways you can volunteer with Steep Rock. Click HERE for more info & to register!

Meet Our Volunteers

Calling all snap happy individuals. We are looking for volunteer photographers to photograph events and happenings in our preserves. We can provide a camera if you do not have your own.
