We’re Seeking Board Members

We’re actively growing our Board of Directors and looking for passionate people to help guide our mission and expand our impact. If you care about environmental stewardship and want to lend your time, skills, or expertise, we’d love to hear from you.

For us, we believe strong meaningful action starts within our community. We’re a grassroots non-profit bringing people together through hands-on education, workshops, and community projects to protect the wetlands, grasslands, shorelines, and woodlands we call home. Join us in building the skills and confidence to become stewards of the land — and safeguard the endangered wildlife that depend on it.

How We Work

We believe real, lasting change happens through collaboration.

  •  Community Members — Hands-on volunteers who bring local knowledge and energy to every project
  •  Municipal Officials — Partners who help turn community goals into lasting policy and protection
  • Fellow Organizations — Allies who share resources, expertise, and a common vision for the land

Every partnership is guided by the same goal: results that benefit both the natural environment, the people and wildlife who call it home.

Whether you have an hour or an ongoing passion for making a difference, there’s a place for you at Mariposa Ecological Initiative.

It’s that time of year again when we get a little too obsessed with cleaning up the garden. We’re hear to tell you that you don’t need to fuss over it. In fact, you are welcome to wait until next Spring. The Xerces Society has compiled some excellent information explaining why you should do this. Read their article HERE
