Invasive Species Removal Work Days at Heritage Park

In partnership with with the Keep Oconee County Beautiful Commission, Oconee County Parks and Recreation Department, and the Oconee County Government, we invite you to join us for a series of invasive species removal work days at Heritage Park! 

This is an excellent opportunity to get outside, learn more about forest health and meet new people. 

Autumn Olive, though beautiful, is crowding our native species and causing ecological harm to our forest and its inhabitants.

No training or experience is required; each volunteer will be trained in identification and removal.

Volunteer at Williams Farm

We are looking for early birds who would like to come and lend a helping hand at our Williams Farm on weekday mornings. Volunteers will help with farm tasks such as planting, weeding, harvesting, and washing, and packing freshly harvested veggies as well as assisting our Farm Incubators as needed. 

This is a great opportunity to learn about farming, give back to your community, or just get out and enjoy the sunshine.
