Job Description

Seed Collecting for Monarchs and the Endangered Rusty Patched Bumble Bee!

The Pollinator Partnership has joined forces with several organizations and agencies to expand Project Wingspan, and we need your help! The project will be collecting seeds throughout Minnesota. We are looking for enthusiastic seed collecting volunteers to help identify and collect milkweed and other valuable native forage plants. As a seed collecting
volunteer, you will be provided with training and be making valuable contributions to supporting migrating monarchs and the imperiled rusty patched bumble bee. No seed collecting experience is required, but basic plant knowledge is preferred.

Project Wingspan is also looking for landowners and public land managers with robust native plant populations, who are interested in supporting local habitat restoration efforts by serving as native seed collection sites.
