It takes a great many volunteers
to operate a land trust, and to offer an array of community conservation programs.
If you are interested in volunteering at Muskoka Conservancy, there are many ways you can become involved. Here are a few ~ be a Land Steward and help with property monitoring, lead or assist with a Nature Quest, help with trail maintenance or invasive species removal, or assist with our annual Native Plant sale. There are always opportunities to jump in!
Or maybe you have the right skills to join
our Board of Directors?
Whatever your interest,
we would love to hear from you!

We have to shift our attitude of ownership to nature to relationship with nature. The moment you change from ownership to relationship, you create a sense of the sacred.
