Purpose
Why this matters
The goal of this project is to protect, preserve, and restore the land of the Waldens Ridge civic center and opera house. We want it to be an excellently preserved natural area where people feel at peace. Along the way, we will learn about everything from our amazing green forest to the most beautiful flowers the Tennessee area can provide. We invite you and anyone else who is interested in finding a way to both learn how to be conservationally aware and plant many beautiful plants along the way.
In one shift you could earn up to 5 hours or more depending on how long you work. Scouts: every hour here is a conservation hour, which is rare and highly recommended.
