Gila Watershed Partnership Invites Public to 

First Friday Volunteer Social – Greenhouse 101

The Gila Watershed Partnership invites all members of the public to attend our next First Friday Volunteer Event and Social, March 7. The activity is called Greenhouse 101: participants can learn about some of the day to day activities of a full-time native plants greenhouse and participate in some of those activities. Meet at the Gila Native Plants Nursery at Discovery Park Campus of EAC from 11 am to 1 pm. 

If you’re already a GWP volunteer, you’re interested in volunteering, or you just want to see what’s going on at the Gila Watershed Partnership, RSVP to info@gwpaz.org. Lunch will be provided, so please include any dietary restrictions.

First Friday Volunteer Socials started in 2021, and GWP recently started a new series of these events in February. On the first Friday of every month, volunteers and anyone interested in the organization’s work at the Gila Native Plant Nursery, will be invited to an event with the opportunity to get to know each other and the staff of GWP. Activities might include cleaning seeds to prepare them for planting, watching presentations about native plants and our watershed, going on field trips to the areas we are restoring and to other places in the Gila Valley, washing pots, and weeding in the pollinator garden.
