Join the Mt. Kearsarge Indian Museum Grounds Committee
Get outside. Make an impact. Help shape our landscape.
The Mt. Kearsarge Indian Museum (MKIM) sits on 12 acres of scenic New Hampshire hillside, with trails, gardens, and beautiful views of the Mink Hills. We are seeking volunteers to join our Grounds Committee and help care for the land, keep the Museum welcoming, and bring new projects to life.
This year, one of our most exciting initiatives is the Accessible Trail through the Medicine Woods. Volunteers will have the chance to:
Select and plant native species along the trail
Help design and install interpretive signage
Participate in the ribbon-cutting celebration
Committee work also includes maintaining trails, caring for our 60-species Arboretum, managing plantings, and keeping the grounds safe and inviting for visitors of all ages. Whether you enjoy light landscaping, mild manual labor, or planning and organizing, there’s a place for you.
Who We’re Looking For
People who enjoy being outdoors
Those willing to lend hands-on support for planting, pruning, and trail work
Anyone who wants to contribute to a one-of-a-kind Museum experience for visitors
Volunteers with experience or interest in gardening, mowing, trails, or land stewardship
We mostly work outside from April through October, with occasional indoor planning meetings during colder months. Whether you can help regularly or only occasionally, your contribution makes a real difference.
