Turtle Time with the Turtle Team! (Saturtle-day!)

Details

The Turtle Team is a citizen science, grassroots-powered rehab and rescue program where we work with live turtles! We also plan and host public facing events.

**Note: We are currently experimenting with using Meetup to manage our volunteer opportunities! Please bear with us if there are hiccups!**

We meet Tues, Thurs, and Sat from 5-6pm at the Prime Produce Guildhall to learn about turtles and turtle care. Each session we get to practice turtle care and observations working with anywhere from 1 to 5 different rescued and rehabilitated turtles (many of which we source through the New York Turtle and Tortoise Society Rehab Program run by Lorri Cramer). Sometimes we participate in other ecology-related or turtle-related field trips and special events together. We also use this time to plan fun social events oriented around nature education, like nature documentary nights and/or our famous charity turtle race!
