Z. Other Organization Volunteer Opportunities - PEPAKEṈ HÁUTW̱ - SṈIDȻEȽ Resiliency Project - Highlands
Practicing land-based education & ecosystem restoration
We hope to share the importance of native ecosystems and the network of embedded relations. They support greater biodiversity and their healthy populations work to mitigate climate change.
It is our responsibility to protect native ecosystems, and to share our knowledge and teachings about restoration practices. PEPAKEṈ HÁUTW̱ hopes to inspire community members to take an ecological approach to return native plants across the W̱SÁNEĆ homelands.
We appreciate your interest in volunteering with PEPAKEṈ HÁUTW̱ at our SṈIDȻEȽ Resiliency Project!
Volunteers of all skill levels are welcome to join! We are cultivating a space where we can learn from each other, the land, and our plant and animal kin. Training and tools will be provided.
Please bring water, lunch, and wear clothes and footwear you feel comfortable working in.
