Who We Are
The Bellingham Parks Volunteer Program empowers our community to have the tools, knowledge, and skills to care for, restore, and protect Bellingham’s parks, trails, and open spaces.
Through hands-on environmental stewardship and educational activities, we partner with groups of all ages and backgrounds to offer educational lessons and stewardship opportunities. Activities include planting native trees and shrubs, removing invasive species, spreading mulch, educating about the issue of dog waste, picking up litter, and more. Join us!
