Outdoor Volunteer Efforts

Outdoor Volunteer Efforts (OVE) is about getting your hands dirty; OVE gives students the opportunity to work in our own community garden or team up with local organizations focused on helping us conserve and interact with our natural environment. 

OVE has a partnership with the local Intervale Conservation Nursery, where Saint Michael's College volunteers work with staff to help raise native species of trees for stream bank restoration projects.  OVE also does trail maintenance with a variety of organizations including the Green Mountain Club, Mad River Glen, and Wichland Woods in Keene, NH.

Most of the service experiences offered are day trips, however, once a semester there usually is an overnight service option.
