As a volunteer, you can play a hands-on role in a wide range of Land Trust activities. The Land Trust relies on the support of volunteers to successfully manage our properties and plan events that raise the profile of the Land Trust, encourage donations and promote the importance of land conservation.

Property Monitors
All HHLT properties are monitored. As a property monitor, you would volunteer to walk various sections of trail and complete a checklist of your observations. You could also help walk the boundary of a property to ensure no trespassing or other prohibited activities have taken place. Or become even more involved and join a property management committee.
