Garden Volunteer

VOLUNTEER IN OUR LEARNING GARDEN

Garden volunteers will plant, harvest, pull weeds, and perform a variety of tasks required to maintain the garden and help it flourish.  Expect to bend, get dirty, and soak up some sun. Please bring your own gloves, a bottle of water (we will provide the refills) and sunscreen. Volunteers must be confirmed and scheduled by staff in advance of volunteering in the garden.
