There are three volunteer roles available: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRunners: Runners greet cars as they arrive to the check-in area\, ask for full name and relay name to check-in personnel. The check-in volunteers will pull pre-printed orders and give then to the runners. Runners will walk with the car and relay the orders to the loaders which trees are needed. Runners will then go back to check-in area and start process over. This volunteer role does the most walking. \n\n\n\nTraffic Control: These volunteers will direct traffic at key areas and turns to help keep a steady pace. They will help alert staff if traffic gets backed up and when adjustments are needed. Trees Forever will provide these volunteers with site maps and safety vests. \n\n\n\nLoaders: Loaders will be stationed near specific tree species and help load trees into vehicles when they pull up. Trees can weigh up to 40lbs. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease register below: URL:https://treesforever.org/event/tree-distribution-volunteers-needed-2/ LOCATION:Collins Parking lot\, 400 Collins Road NE\, Cedar Rapids IA\, Cedar Rapids\, Iowa\, 52402\, United States CATEGORIES:In person,Iowa,Volunteer END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260501T173000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260501T193000 DTSTAMP:20260422T184544Z CREATED:20260422T134539Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260422T184544Z UID:29497-1777656600-1777663800@treesforever.org SUMMARY:Hazelnut Farm Field Day & Pruning Workshop DESCRIPTION:This is a great opportunity for anyone interested in hazelnuts or other nut and fruit crops to beef up their skills and learn about spring orchard management! \n\n\n\nJoin Trees Forever Agroforester Jeff Jensen for hands on learning at a hazelnut orchard near Marion.
