Want to connect with your western Montana conservation lands? Join us for our 2024 events and volunteering opportunities! This list will be updated throughout the season:
July and August, 2024
Big Sky Brewing Company Amphitheatre (map)
Support conservation in western Montana while volunteering to sell and pour drinks at the Big Sky Brewing Company Summer Concert Series. In partnership with our friends at Big Sky Brewing Company and Knitting Factory Entertainment, we'll be at every concert at the Big Sky Brewing Amphitheater this summer! Five Valleys will receive a portion of the drink sales proceeds, which will directly support our conservation and stewardship efforts.
June, July and August, 2024
Rock Creek Confluence property (map)
Get up close and personal with bird science! Join our partners at the University of Montana Bird Ecology Lab for their scheduled bird banding days at Five Valleys' Rock Creek Confluence property. Researchers capture, document, measure, and release birds to better understand avian behavior and populations.
Visitors should plan to arrive between 7:30 - 9:00am. No need to RSVP, just park at the Confluence's east side trailhead and hike the .5 miles to the banding station. Banding is suitable for kids and adults of all ages. Learn more.
