A Day in the Dirt

Content Image

The Trail Conservancy’s Day in the Dirt is an opportunity for groups to promote volunteerism and environmental stewardship while building cohesiveness and camaraderie. This highly- customized volunteer day includes a TTC staff member dedicated to your group and facilitating the volunteer event. Our trained field staff will supervise your company’s Day in the Dirt, providing all tools and equipment needed and coordinating with City entities such as Austin Parks and Recreation Department and Watershed Protection Department for the volunteer activities.

Funds raised from these engaging and impactful events go toward expenses for the volunteer day, such as tools, mulch, trees, saplings, irrigation, staff time, etc.
