8-10hrs/wk, 2-4 hrs/shift, morning and evening shifts available, weekday and weekend shifts available About Fellowfield: Fellowfield Discovery Park is a new outdoor nature and learning center to serve the diverse community of southeast Michigan (and anyone else who wants to visit!) Nestled in a landscape of gardens, wetlands, and native forest, our park is a place where people of all ages will come to connect—with nature, with each other, and with ideas that shape our world. Our mission is to nurture a deeper understanding of the natural world and our place within it, fostering relationships that are rooted in respect, curiosity, and shared responsibility. The park will be home to education programs, hands-on learning stations, trails, gardens, and natural playgrounds that encourage visitors of all ages to learn through play, observation, and engagement with one another and the world around them. Prior to the park’s official opening in 2026, we will be hosting volunteer work days and pre-opening tours for donors and other special guests. |
