What We Do

We bring people together to care for the forest. Through hands-on volunteer opportunities, we restore trails, improve campsites, and protect wilderness—strengthening stewardship and community with every project.

Get Involved

Whether you're joining a weekend trail crew or planting trees for an afternoon, your time and energy directly support the health of public lands. Volunteers help maintain trails, improve campsites, and care for wilderness areas across the forest—no experience required, just a willingness to pitch in.

Help Us Care for the Forest

Every contribution helps us equip volunteers, complete projects, and improve access to the outdoors — real, on-the-ground work that sustains the forest for future generations.
