Volunteer
The Edison Wetlands Association encourages community service for people of all ages. Individuals, scout troops, schools, religious groups and other organizations are invited to undertake age-appropriate projects at the Triple C Ranch and Nature Center.
Volunteers might work in the garden, tend the livestock, help with landscape maintenance, or participate in a cleanup activity that makes the Dismal Swamp Conservation Area even more scenic and beautiful for future visitors. Projects may be one-time events or long-term undertakings, extending over several visits.
