Friends of Saguaro National Park
We’re looking for enthusiastic interns who love working outdoors and learning about the Sonoran Desert ecosystem! As part of our team, you’ll help protect the natural resources of Saguaro National Park. This position will focus on wildfire fuel reduction through invasive plant management. The work will require the use of hand tools, hiking off trail, and being outside for the full 10-hour workday.
Our crew typically works four 10-hour days, Tuesday through Friday. No specific prior skills are required — just an interest in the natural world, a positive attitude, and experience working or recreating outdoors.
In addition to invasive plant management, you’ll have opportunities to support a variety of other resource projects. Cross-training may include:
- Fence maintenance and wildlife-friendly retrofits
- Water surveys
- Wildlife camera monitoring
- Rare plant and frog surveys
- Saguaro monitoring
If you’re passionate about conservation and eager to gain hands-on experience in desert ecology, we’d love to have you on the team!
