Newtown Creek Alliance is excited to welcome volunteers to help out with our Greenhouse! Join us every third Tuesday of the month from May – September. Volunteers will assist us in up-potting and caring for our native plant nursery, many of which we grew from native seeds. Our horticulturalist, Brenda, will be onsite to guide activities and answer any questions about the plants. Register here!
Newtown Creek Alliance is excited to team up with Partnerships for Parks for a special volunteer day to cleanup Manhattan Avenue Street-End Park (M.A.S.E.). This event will include: pruning, weeding, transplanting, watering, and cleanup at the park. Get full details and sign up here.
Join NCA and Hunters Point Parks Conservancy for a small-group volunteer day at the 48th Ave Pollinator Garden. Please click on this link to go to the SignUp website to find out more information and to register for volunteer shifts!
Please bring your own pair of gloves if you have one. You should also bring your own water bottle, wear comfortable clothing and closed toed shoes. All volunteers must have also completed HPPC’s volunteer waiver (via the SignUp website).
Join Newtown Creek Alliance and Billion Oyster Project for a fun, hands-on series building marine habitat for oysters, mussels, and other marine wildlife.
Using a unique blend of ECOncrete and specially designed molds, we will get our hands dirty to make a number of marine disks that will provide habitat for filter feeders to attach to and grow, acting as reef-like structures. All materials will be provided; we ask that volunteers also wear masks (provided) when handling concrete. Full details and register here.
