SoPo Seeks Volunteer Coaches for Resilient Yards Program

The City of South Portland is seeking volunteer coaches to join the Resilient Yards community!

In its fourth year, the South Portland Resilient Yards Program will continue its focus on replacing lawn areas with native habitat gardens. Volunteer coaching positions are open to anyone who has an enthusiasm to learn about native plants and build relationships with community members. After undergoing a series of trainings, coaches are paired with South Portland residents and collaborate with them to get started in cultivating a resilient landscape. Coaches will share information about native plants, offer advice for how to maintain native habitat gardens, answer questions, and help participants design and install native habitat gardens with program resources.
