Meet some of the Center's wonderful volunteers:
This is Debra Burke. She has
been volunteering for the Center and our Member Groups since
1991! Chances are, if you call us on Friday, Debra
will answer the phone! She is a wealth of
knowledge. As a nutritionist by profession, Debra is
especially interested in how our natural environment can impact
our own physical and emotional health. Debra has
recently started her own native plant nursery and is very
knowledgeable of native plant species and the noxious weeds
that take up their habitat and disrupt our ecosystem. She's
always willing to share her knowledge so give her a call any
Friday at the Center! Thanks Debra!
This is Steve Gustafson. Steve's been volunteering with us and our Member Groups for a couple years now. Steve started off with the Center helping us coordinate and place volunteers. Now, Steve helps us distribute our monthly events calendars throughout town and lends a hand at special events when he's not volunteering in the field doing restoration work, or helping out with the local biofuels club.
Thanks Steve!
