Restoration and recreation volunteering

So much of the work done in the regional parks wouldn't be possible without the help of people in our communities.

More than 25,000 trees are planted every year in our parks by people like you. Keep an eye out for community planting days and other events. 

These are some of the groups to join, and check out some of the awesome things they've done.
