Volunteer & get your order early!
Posted by Doug Reith on
We would love to invite you to volunteer this Spring, during the week of April 20th, leading up to our Spring Tree & Shrub Sale on April 23rd and 24th.
Volunteers have long been the engine driving annual tree and shrub distributions. With volunteer time, hardwork and heart, the WCCD has distributed over 7.1 million trees and plants to Washtenaw County residents since 1951! Volunteers have assisted at countless tabling events, workshops, fairs, and served on the WCCD board since our founding in 1948.
Since the sale was canceled last year, and with more folks at home due to the pandemic, we're reaching a record number of plants sold and total orders, so we need your help to make the distribution happen efficiently and safely this spring. We will be taking precautions following local and state health advisements around the COVID-19 virus.
The volunteer shifts are 2 hours each, and involve sorting, counting of plants, packing of orders, and assisting with the orders' customer pick-ups. If you can do one or more shift, please consider signing up now:
