Event Details

In celebration of the 2022 Master Naturalist Volunteer Graduation, Illinois Extension is hosting an outdoor volunteer fair to mix and mingle with the new Master Naturalists and all their program partners! This event is for anyone who wants to learn more about volunteering for our environment locally.

It will be held on August 18 from 6-7 pm near the organic gardens at Meadowbrook just off Race St in Urbana. You will be able to talk to representatives from Champaign County Forest Preserve District, Champaign Park District Natural Areas, Urbana Park District, Vermilion County Conservation District, Grand Prairie Friends, Land Conservation Foundation, Upper Sangamon River Conservancy, the Idea Store, Audubon Society, Allerton Allies, and more. There will also be representatives talking about Extension programs, like Master Naturalist, Master Gardener, and Money Mentors. Everyone will be spread out from the pavilion to the herb garden for a casual atmosphere to ask questions and sign up to volunteer with local organizations.

Help spread the word and recruit volunteers for our local environment. For questions contact Amanda at achriste@illinois.edu. You are encouraged to register below to receive an email reminder, but registration is not required.
