Monthly Restoration Projects
The JFWA hosts a monthly project, usually on the Second Saturday of the month. These projects are open to the public, all ages are welcome, no experience is necessary and tools and gloves are provided! Visit our calendar to see upcoming restoration projects and see how you can get involved.

Stream Watch
Do you have a favorite place along a Jones Falls creek or stream? Consider adopting a section of stream with your family or friends. Learn more here!

Student Groups
Students - do you need community service hours to fulfill graduation requirements? Teachers - do you need a project to fulfill grant obligations or just want to get your kids outside? The JFWA will work with you to set up a meaningful and age-appropriate service learning project to fit your needs. Click here!

Corporate Groups
Let the JFWA arrange an exciting and significant project for your group. Past corporate events have included tree plantings, invasive plant removals, and trash clean-ups.

Rally for the River
Many hands will be needed to make the next Rally a success. It is scheduled for September 21, 2008 success. Sign up early to get the best jobs! Learn more here!

Photographers and Writers
We are always in need of photographers and writers at our restoration projects or special events, or submit photos or make a written contribution for use in our newsletters and website.

Outreach
Represent the JFWA at community events or distribute JFWA newsletters and flyers to libraries, community centers, or other gathering places.
The Jones Falls Watershed Association gets the job done with the help of volunteers. In 2006 alone, over 650 volunteers have removed 17,000 pounds of trash and 4900 pounds of invasive species from the watershed!
