Group Volunteering

Get your business, scout troop, running club, college group, community organization, youth team, or any other group involved in volunteering at the Blue Hills Reservation! You can help out with a wide range of activities and projects that make a difference.

Volunteer Projects

Volunteering with your team, business, or group is a fun way to give back to nature and connect with colleagues, friends, and fellow volunteers. For businesses working remotely, it’s a great opportunity to meet face-to-face and bond outside of the office!

 

We have a variety of projects available across the Blue Hills, including:

  • Removing invasive plants
  • Maintaining and repairing trails
  • Cleaning up trash and litter
  • Supporting community events and programs
  • And much more!

Check out the details below for available dates, FAQs, and more information on how you can sign up your group to get involved.

  • FREE for nonprofit, community groups, and schools (up to 30 volunteers)
  • $1,000 for corporate groups with 1-10 volunteers
  • $1,500 for corporate groups with 11-20 volunteers
  • $2,000 for corporate groups with 21-30 volunteers
