The purpose of the event is to collect prairie seeds from a Prairie remnant in Story County so that these seeds can be used elsewhere in the county for native prairie plantings.

We will collect prairie seed at Story County's hidden gem, Doolittle Prairie. Story County Conservation (SCC) will show you what to collect and provide information about the plants around you as you work. This family-friendly seed harvest is a great opportunity to learn more about the prairie and lend a helping hand.

Registration is required at http://cerv.is/m?0342x171.

Please bring a full water bottle. Volunteers need to come prepared for the weather with long pants, heavy duty walking/hiking shoes and working gloves. Sunscreen, insect repellent and eye protection are likely to be helpful.

From August 1st 2019 we are carrying out a project on birdlife conservation at Lake Tota (Colombia), aiming to help on protecting an endemic and endangered bird species called Apolinar's Wren (Cistothorus apolinari), at a certain location site of this lake. Work will consist on field and academic research, habitat restoration, community integration, workshops with locals in the surrounding rural area (adults and children), and a birdtourism package preparation to involve both locals as service providers, and birdlife travellers & enthusiasts (national and international level).

The volunteering opportunity offered (Field & Community Assistant) will have the purpose of cooperating on assisting the whole work in every front (in permanent articulation with the project leader), helping on integrating and providing the team with the resources and logistics needed, as well as to having other certain role responsibilities on the project structure (which will depend very much on the volunteer's profile).

By having two volunteering opportunities available, we expect to have one person with emphasis on field work, and another one on community work.
