Habitat Improvement Hand

• Love Wildlife? Hate Invasive Plants? We Need You!
• Is your backyard a battleground of overgrown invasives but don't know what to do? Want to help nature around your community? Join the Fairfield County Park District as a Habitat Improvement Tech and help restore the natural balance to our parks and wild spaces.

You’ll make a real impact on local ecosystems while gaining experience and skills in habitat restoration and plant ID-skills you can use at home, in your community, or in a green career down the road.

Also perfect for business groups looking for a one-time volunteer day with purpose and punch!

What You Might Be Doing:

• Removing invasive plants by pulling, pruning, or sawing
• Hauling brush and cleared vegetation
• Hiking off-trail through uneven terrain
• No experience neededjust a good attitude, love for the outdoors, and a willingness to get dirty. We’ll teach you how to identify invasive species and work safely in the field.

Be prepared for:

• Outdoor conditions (inclement weather, biting insects, and other outdoor risks)
• Hands-on work
• Making a big difference

All volunteers must pass a background check.
