Connemara Conservancy

Project Title:  Connemara Conservancy
Project Location:
Alma Drive, just south of W. Bethany Drive, Allen, Texas
Project Website:
https://connemaraconservancy.org

The purpose of the 72-acre Meadow Nature Preserve is to preserve and restore the natural, biologically diverse ecosystem that is native to the area. It also serves to connect people with nature and is open to the public on weekends.

Volunteers help with restoration work to re-establish native prairie plants, removal of invasive species, trail maintenance, guiding nature walks and other educational events for the public.

We have volunteer opportunities most days of the week.
Connemara Volunteer Opportunity
Daily Monday – Friday 8:15 – 11:00

For questions contact Bob Mione:  rm****@*ol.com 214-534-1900

While we are there most days at 8:15 am some days the work day will get cancelled due to weather or scheduling conflicts occasionally. The meeting location at Connemara also changes occasionally, Bob will include this in his weekly emails.
The best way to keep informed on activities at Connemara is to get on Bob’s email list.  To do this send him an email to the above address.

2024 Activities – 8 volunteers with 334 hours of service performed

  • Volunteers participated in field research, wildscape/facility maintenance, public outreach, and educational talks
