Opportunities From: Delaware State Parks

Volunteer: Weed Warriors - Killens Pond State Park

Are you interested in helping to reduce the threat of invasive plants to the land and resources that we have been entrusted to protect and manage?


Fortunately, public consciousness about the harms of invasive plants — plants not native to the region that grow aggressively, compete with native plants for resources, and displace native plants — continues to rise. Volunteers help to meet this challenge and thus make a significant difference in Killens Pond State Park’s quest to manage invasive plants. We are eager to work with like-minded people who are passionate or want to learn more about this issue. So please join us on the 3rd Saturday of each month, from 10 AM to 12 PM for a rewarding morning of volunteer work removing invasive plants!

Volunteer: Trail Survey Walks and Maintenance

Want to enjoy a nice walk on a trail and volunteer at the same time?!

We will carry some small hand tools with us (hand pruners, loppers, litter grabber, buckets, etc.) as we walk a trail so that we can take care of any problem areas we may come across.

If you enjoy your survey walk with us and would like to continue doing this on your own time, please sign up for our Adopt-a-Trail Program! Feel free to ask questions about this program while on the survey hike.
