Basic Supervisor Training

Notes:

Great River Greening’s Volunteer Supervisors are the gears of our events. They are the motivators and initiators leading work groups at restoration events. Supervisors provide on the job training to work groups consisting of 5-15 restoration volunteers. Work includes, but is not limited to, planting, exotic species removal, and native seed collection propagation. In addition, Volunteer Supervisors lead smaller projects throughout the year and educate community groups on issues related to ecological conservation and restoration.

Completion of the Basic Supervisor Training session will allow participants to operate in this very vital capacity. Spring event sign-up sheets will be available at the training. Sign-up today and help Great River Greening revitalize one of our state’s most important treasures, our precious native landscapes!
