Volunteers & Interns

Volunteering is a great way to give back to the community while having fun and learning new things. And, you don’t need a green thumb. While knowing something about gardening helps, you can choose from many different areas to make your contribution. 

Our highly qualified team includes experts who are experienced and love to share their knowledge.  If you have ever wanted to learn more about plants and animals, we have the perfect environment to do so!  We strive to promote  an equitable and inclusive team as well as a positive work environment.

Groups are welcome to volunteer too! Contact [email protected].
