VYCC Advanced Forest Crew Member Fall 300 Hour

Advanced Forests Crews complete forestry projects including but not limited to crop tree release, early successional habitat, hazard tree removal, and invasive species control. Advanced Crew Members gain the technical skills to help them be competitive in their next adventures, complete projects that benefit Vermont's people and landscapes, and build their networks by working alongside project partners.

A successful Advanced Crew Member is ready to be part of a supportive and inclusive crew community, navigate and learn from challenges, and strive towards personal and professional growth. Being on a Conservation Camping Crew is an immersive experience. Corps Members complete projects during the day and then camp together at night completing chores and other logistics.

All Crews work and camp together Monday through Friday and have weekends off. Further help on this page can be found by clicking here.
