You can sign up for one of our volunteer events via our Events Calendar above! We typically post all of our events on the calendar at least one month in advance. Event details, including the meetup location, will be sent after you register.

After you sign up, you will receive a confirmation email with links to sign/verify liability waivers/parental consent forms. Please note there is no age limit to join, but minors must provide a signed parental consent form prior to the event in order to participate. Volunteers under the age of 15 must be accompanied by a parent or chaperone who is at least 21 years old.

Please be sure to read the entire confirmation email carefully as it contains important event details and instructions. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out!

Volunteer activities consist of urban tree planting, urban park and trail beautification, and ecological restoration in our local wildlands. You can learn more about each event by clicking on the individual event. Event details, including the meetup location, will be sent in a confirmation email after you register.

We'd love to have your group join us at an event. You can email us at volunteer(@)treepeople.org to find out if there is capacity for your group. Each person must sign up individually. We recommend doing this far in advance of the event to prevent it from filling up.

If you're interested in a private event, check out our webpage Teams for Trees! Information about the types of events and their required donation levels available to private corporate groups is on that webpage.

Please note that volunteers under the age of 15 must be accompanied by a parent or chaperone who is at least 21 years old. There must be at least one adult chaperone per 10 volunteers ages 15 or younger.

When registering minors using our group registration form, you will need their DOB and parent’s email. We can also provide you with a copy of our liability waiver to distribute and have the group bring home to their parents to sign. Please email volunteer(@)treepeople.org for more information.

Please contact volunteer(@)treepeople.org to see if we can accommodate you. Please note that emails sent day of the event will likely not be responded to that day.

After you’ve completed your service hours, event staff members can provide verification. Be sure to let event staff know you need to verify your community service, and they will be happy to sign any paper or electronic forms for you. You can also email volunteer(@)treepeople.org once you’ve completed your hours, and we can send a signed letter.

Unfortunately, we do sometimes cancel the events due to poor weather. Pay close attention to all email correspondence for updates on cancellations and for a link to our online event status for our conservation department specifically. You will receive an email notice of the cancellation once the decision to cancel the event has been made.

To reiterate, events may be canceled if weather or site conditions are deemed unsafe. We encourage volunteers to keep a close eye on email communications for such cancellations and for more information on conservation events.

Please feel free to check out our Events Calendar to reschedule your event! We’re so sorry for the inconvenience and hope you can join us another time.

We are hard at work attempting to expand the reach of the organization. Sign up for our newsletter to receive updates about new planting sites!

You will receive all event information (including address and meetup location information) after you’ve successfully registered for the event via the calendar above. We do not post the event location on the website to avoid walk-ins on event day and to control volunteer turnout. We’re sorry for any inconvenience this may cause, and we hope you can join us!

Volunteers don’t need experience or training before volunteering at TreePeople events. Just bring your energy and enthusiasm! Our staff will present the group with all the work at the start of each event, followed by an interactive planting/activity demonstration.

It varies by event location. We strongly encourage Volunteers to use the restroom facilities near the event before arrival.

Nope! Volunteer with us as many or as few times as you’d like. We’re happy to have you back at any time!
