The Coccoloba Chapter of the Florida Native Plant Society offers various volunteer opportunities. These are wonderful ways to learn more about native plants, get some exercise, or simply socialize a bit. If you are interested in any opportunities, please drop us a note. Let us know what you're interested in doing along with your availability.
Various opportunities include:
Education/Outreach -- This includes speaking gigs, manning a booth at various events, festivals, etc. It may include selling native plants.
Plant Sales -- We sell plants to the public every Sunday and Tuesday from 9-1 at River Oaks Preserve in Estero (9541 Broadway Ave E, Estero, FL 33928)
Plant Propagation -- We propagate plants in south Lee County at Estero River Oaks Preserve
Planting Projects -- We often conduct planting projects or workdays weeding and cleaning prior projects. We generally only work for 2 hours, often having lunch together afterward.
Site Visits -- The Coccoloba Chapter provides free site visits to homes or businesses to discuss the landscaping. These are a lot of fun and a great opportunity to learn about native and exotic plants.
