Volunteer Saturdays at the EcoCenter: Gift Making

Join us at the EcoCenter on May 30th (Saturday) from 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM to help us make gifts for the volunteers who deliver our environmental education programs. We'll be creating salt scrubs so our volunteers can pamper themselves the way they care for our community.

Our team will provide the jars, ingredients, and art materials. We could use some helping hands to mix, pour, and put a little love into each gift!

Located in the heart of the Palo Alto Baylands Nature Preserve, the EcoCenter is a regional hub for nature and science exploration for all ages. A historic landmark with its distinctive Nautical Moderne architecture, the EcoCenter was originally constructed in the 1940s as a base for the Sea Scouts. Today, it serves as a thriving public nature center and community education resource as the headquarters of the Environmental Volunteers. Visitors will find plenty to explore: from hands-on activities and interactive displays, to green building features and rotating art exhibits, there is always something new to discover at the EcoCenter.

Environmental Volunteers has inspired people of all ages for over 50 years to learn about the wonders of the natural world. We train volunteers to bring immersive science and nature-based experiences programs through over 20,000 student experiences each year. Through field trips and programs in the classroom, in the community, and at the EcoCenter, we grow students’ environmental awareness, connect kids and adults to the outdoors, and instill a desire to protect Earth’s beauty and natural resources.
