Volunteer
The Deering Estate at Cutler engages community volunteers to enhance and expand the reach of our Education and Interpretive Staff. We are always in need of helping hands for coastal clean-up, landscaping maintenance, butterfly gardening and much more. We are also seeking to train a dedicated corps of long-term volunteer docents to assist in conducting tours and recreation programs, archiving and collections management, and new program development. If you have a particular interest in sharing the many resources the Deering Estate at Cutler has to offer with others, we invite you to become one of our esteemed volunteers.
Volunteers age 18 or older may be fingerprinted, and all volunteers must submit their date-of-birth and a social security number or valid drivers license number for a criminal background check.
