HOW TO VOLUNTEER
Welcome Back! Our volunteer program is back open and we look forward to having you in Kokee with us. All ages and skill levels are welcome. Volunteers must be able to provide their own transportation to and from worksites.
The Kōkeʻe Resource Conservation Program does primarily alien species control work in the forests of Kaua‘i. The program provides a framework for volunteers to be involved in preserving the spectacular natural resources of the area. Periodically KRCP also does collecting and propagation of native plants, outplanting of native plants, trail maintenance, fence maintenance and maintenance of tea plants located in Kōkeʻe.
Work days are available Monday-Thursday between 7 am-5 pm. We can schedule a work project for a half day, 8 am-12 pm, or full day, 8 am - 4 pm.
Effective September 13, 2021: Governor Ige's Executive Order (EO) 21-07 signed
September 8, 2021 requires contractors and visitors at state facilities and on state property to be vaccinated or submit a negative COVID test result prior to entry. This mandate applies to permitted vendors, commercial operators, and volunteer partners. As a volunteer partner of the state, our program is required to abide by this mandate. Volunteers and/or visitors of KRCP are also required to abide by this mandate when working with our team. We thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation.
