In this paper, using a method of construction of $1$-designs which are not necessarily symmetric, introduced by Key and Moori in [5], we determine a number of $1$-designs with interesting parameters from the maximal subgroups and the conjugacy classes of the small Ree groups $^2G_2(q)$. The designs we obtain are invariant under the action of the groups $^2G_2(q)$.
