Volunteer

Volunteers play a vital role in helping the garden grow. 

We are currently accepting seasonal volunteers to assist with our annual holiday fundraiser, Festival of Trees. If you're interested in joining us for this festive event, we'd love your support! Please create an account to see available openings. 

For those who wish to volunteer year-round in the Garden, please create an account with us, and we will reach out in early spring to schedule a volunteer orientation. Thank you for your interest, and we look forward to seeing you in the Garden!

We offer a diverse range of volunteer opportunities, from hands-on positions in our greenhouses to assisting guests during flower events. Volunteer positions are posted ahead of time, allowing you to plan your participation! Occasionally have new or weather-dependent projects that may be communicated on short notice via email. The majority of our volunteer activities and orientations take place Monday through Friday.  Seasonally we offer evening and weekend opportunities as we continue to grow our team and event lineup. Volunteering with us is flexible; there is no minimum commitment, you can choose to participate in specific events or year-round, depending on your availability.

Our volunteers play a vital role in supporting all aspects of our mission, from horticulture to guest engagement and beyond. General applications are accepted throughout the year, but please be aware that some positions are seasonal and may have limited availability. Additionally, certain roles may require a background check.

We provide all the necessary tools for horticulture volunteers but ask that you bring personal items such as work gloves, kneelers, and water bottles. Reliability, punctuality, and commitment are key to ensuring a rewarding experience for everyone involved.

By volunteering, you will not only contribute to the beauty of the Garden and the success of our programs but also gain new skills, experience, and the opportunity to work alongside our dedicated staff and fellow volunteers. We encourage you to create a volunteer account and look forward to welcoming you into our volunteer community.
