I am looking to volunteer, but in an alternative to the big organizations. If you (or anyone, really) know of a way to accomplish this, in the words of the OP of this thread: "please share any tips or experiences related to the topic."
The APOC wants you to pay $50 to join and then $650 for a training/motivation session before they will find you a place to work for no pay from 5AM to 10PM for a minimum of two weeks.
Is there a better way to volunteer than this?
Picture is one of several taken on the meseta among bean, wheat sunflower and other plants. I see what you're thinking - maybe they are put or kept intentionally, to keep the soil from blowing away in the wind.
Also, I wonder if the rocks add trace amounts of minerals to the soil every time it...
If the rocks constantly rise up to the surface and don't get removed then the rocks in my pic may have been there for many, maybe even hundreds, of years? Dang.
Walking along the CF I see so many of the farming fields are full of rocks. It seems to me they would be pretty tough on the equipment so I wonder if there is a good reason for leaving them in the fields.
