​In 2023, many volunteers stepped up to make all our events a success, but one individual stood out with consistency, dedication, and humor to every event in 2023: Helen Peters! 

Helen Peters, named Volunteer of the Year, is well deserved for her outstanding commitment to community involvement and the mission of conservation. She continues to emulate dependability throughout WCCD tree, shrub, and native plant distributions by providing strategic feedback, adaptability, proactive thinking, and leadership. Following in her mother’s footsteps for her love of volunteerism, Helen is a proud local residing in her childhood home in Ann Arbor. Her enthusiasm and love for serving her community is contagious. We fully appreciated the knowledge, humor, and energy that they bring to the work.

​On behalf of the Washtenaw County Conservation District, thank you, Helen!
