How can you help preserve Madison's Wild Side?

Volunteer!
Your involvement is crucial to maintaining our parks; whose natural beauty and recreational opportunities contribute so much to Madison's nationally recognized quality of life.

What do volunteers do in the conservation parks?

  • Natural area restoration by controlling invasive plants such as garlic mustard, buckthorn, etc.

  • Collect seeds for ongoing prairie restoration

  • Maintain trails

How can I help?

  • Donate money for native plant material, benches, or maintenance equipment.

  • Organize a group for a volunteer project.

  • Volunteer at "Second Saturdays at Owen."  Join the city parks staff every 2nd Saturday of the month from April to October at Owen Conservation Park from 9 a.m. - noon.
