Volunteer

Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority, Tiffin Centre for Conservation

Location

9 Napoleon Rd, Barrie, ON L4M 0G8, Canada

Duties

Come help rehabilitate the aquatic ecosystem with Nottawasaga Valley Conservation Authority!

Upstream of Little Lake, a section of Willow Creek is experiencing erosion on the stream banks. With your help we will be stabilizing the stream bank, grading the banks and replanting a riparian forest. 

At this volunteer event we will be stepping into chest waders and wading into waist-deep water to anchor old Christmas trees into the edge of the streambank. This not only reduces erosion and stabilizes the streambanks, it creates habitat for fish and plants. In the weeks following the volunteer event, staff will continue the rehabilitation process by grading the steep banks to enhance floodplain capacity and improve habitat. Thank you to Napoleon for collaborating with us to improve the health and water quality in Willow Creek!

Take a look at how your help will improve fish and wildlife habitat, water quality and our economy in our 9 minute documentary. You can also visit our website for more information.

This is a great way to gain volunteer hours, learn about ecological restoration and help our ecosystem! 

Pre-Registration is required! Space is limited.

What to expect

  • An orientation and tutorial
  • 3 hours of outdoor activity
  • This event will be canceled or postponed if there is rain or extreme weather

Remember to Bring

  • Water bottle, snack
  • Sunscreen, hat, bug repellant
  • Close toed shoes
  • Backpack or bag is recommended since we will be doing a short hike to the site
  • Work gloves (extras available)
  • A change of sock and clothes (in case you fall in or your waders leak)
  • Chest waders (if you have your own, waders will be provided)
  • A friend or family member: it’s more fun together!

Students

  • Remember to bring your community service volunteer form!
