[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you are in the area, you should look at A Wider Circle in Silver Spring. They depend on their volunteers because of the volume they do, and they have an organized system. They are incredibly thoughtful about their work, open to creating solutions and how to use their resources.

I've heard good things about Small Things Matter, but I haven't volunteered with them before. [b]Weed Warriors removes invasive plants from MoCo parks, and they will definitely put you to work. [/b]

I've also found this website helpful in matching skills. https://www.volunteermatch.org/

If this appeals to you, consider becoming a "Master Naturalist". You have to take a class which is a great way to meet like-minded people and then keep up a certain number of volunteer hours and education to maintain the certification. The organization sends out lots of volunteer and continuing education opportunities.
