Volunteer: Tree Plantings with the Chesapeake Bay FoundationHelp Save the Bay by planting trees! Did you know forested streamside buffers (a.k.a. "riparian buffers") have been scientifically proven to be the most effective and least costly best management practice for preventing pollution of our rivers and streams? It's a great way for farmers to improve the quality of the streams running through their farmland. Join CBF's Farm Stewardship Program as we restore these valuable resources. No experience is necessary and all supplies are provided. Families, children accompanied by an adult, and groups are all welcome. Visit www.cbf.org/mdrestoration for additional information and online registration.

Volunteer: Volunteer at Chesapeake Bay Foundation's Clagett FarmClagett Farm is currently open to visitors and volunteers in limited numbers and by appointment only. Schedule Mid-May through Mid-NovemberTuesday, Thursday, Friday Hours: 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Volunteers must be 16 and older. Please plan to get dirty and please dress for the weather—rain gear if it might rain, warm layers if it will be cold, and long, light-colored, light-weight clothes, a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen if it will be hot. Always bring a water bottle. We have plenty of fresh water to re-fill your bottle. We have extra long-sleeve shirts and gloves to protect you against irritating plants, but you might prefer to wear your own. We also recommend bringing a spare pair of long pants if you don't plan to wear them, since some of our crops, such as squash and okra, can be itchy. Complete the Volunteer Health and Information Form (provided upon registration) prior to your scheduled arrival at the farm.
