Volunteer Support 

Volunteers provide valuable support in a variety of ways at Hemlock Bluffs Nature Preserve. By donating time, labor and TLC our volunteers help maintain our high standards on the trails, in the gardens and throughout the facility.

Join the Friends of Hemlock Bluffs

The Friends of Hemlock Bluffs is our support organization providing funds, advertising, and volunteers to help us meet our conservation mission. An all-volunteer board works throughout the year to support our programs, implement fundraising efforts and organize special "Friends" events. All proceeds earned by the Friends of Hemlock Bluffs benefit our environmental programs, conservation projects and events. Members receive a ten percent discount on nature center programs. To join this important group, contact the Stevens Nature Center to receive an application form or come visit!
