Abstract

The Bellingham Parks Volunteer Program (PVP) is a program within the city’s Parks and Recreation department that facilitates volunteer stewardship projects and environmental education programming in Bellingham’s parks and natural spaces. Each Saturday, the program hosts a work party at
a different location for members of the community to help with ecological stewardship projects such as invasive species removal, native species planting, erosion control, and trail management. Run out of what is essentially a closet in the corner of the Bellingham Park Operations office, it is a small program that
makes a massive impact on the well-being of communities and ecological systems in our city.
