Resting on the Shoulders of Volunteers

One of the world’s greatest scientists, Isaac Newton, wrote about the people who came before him, “If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants.”

At CEED, we recognize that so much of what we have accomplished has been done by standing on the shoulders of Volunteers! So many people have pitched in to create this new community center dedicated to connecting people to nature.

The value of all that work, and expertise, and soul is incalculable!

Of course, as we continue to grow and expand, we’re still very much dependent on volunteers.  We still have a bare-bones staff of 2 ½ full time people. If you believe in what CEED is doing and want to help, we would love to talk with you. You’ll have some fun, meet some nice people, and go home feeling good about your day.

On the second Saturday of every month, we hold Volunteer Day, when friends come from near and far to get their hands dirty, and clear trails, plant gardens, remove invasive plants, spruce up the Washington Lodge, and support CEED in a hundred other ways.

If you want to do something more intensive, more long-term, or using professional skills please email us at info@ceedli.org and we’ll figure out where we can use your unique talents. Just to give you some ideas, we’re always looking for:
