Target volunteers

Get Involved

There are many ways you can get involved at LeConte-Woodmanston.

We always welcome new foundation members. If you think you would like to join us, please go to our "membership" page.

Or maybe you can make a financial contribution to assist us in making our vision of the future a reality. Our "contributions" page will assist you in that regard. Contributions, of any size, are especially welcome at the present time. Make sure you designate whether the contribution is for the Memorial Project or for Ongoing Operations. If you wish, that contribution can also be made "in memory of" or "in honor of" an individual.

Of course, there are many other ways you can help.

You could become a volunteer. Your time and talents are needed now more than ever. Volunteer one day a week or one day a month - whatever works out best for you. Opportunities are also available for you to assist with gardening, construction, repairs and much more. In addition to helping us out you'll experience the plantation's beauty first hand.

Researchers, for names of enslaved individuals on Liberty County plantations circa 1860, are needed. We are also gathering oral histories from descendants of those enslaved. If you are a slave-holder descendant and have documents (wills, inventories, tax returns, etc.) from that time, that information would also be helpful. 

If you or someone in your family has something you've heard was originally part of Woodmanston Plantation, we'd sure like to take a look at it. It was common for old plantations, as they were abandoned after the Civil War, to be "disassembled" and "recycled."

Are you a person with technical or engineering expertise? We'd definitely welcome your assistance.

You could also donate one of the plants or camellias we need. If you are interested in doing that please check our Plant Wish List or Camellia List.

If you can volunteer or assist us in any of the areas mentioned, please contact us.
