CANR students have been spending time this fall volunteering for community service organizations.

In October, Alpha Zeta went to the Brandywine Zoo for two hours for our community service project. Most of the members raked leaves to help keep the zoo looking neat. The leaves that we raked were also used for bedding for the animals in the winter. Other members helped renovate an animal holding pen area.

UD students in Kent Messer’s FREC100 class volunteered for The Nature Conservancy on November 7th.  “This is the second year where my students have volunteered with The Nature Conservancy and it appears to be developing into a long-term partnership as its seems to be beneficial to all involved,” Messer said.
