Volunteer

We Couldn’t Do It Without You!

Volunteers are the Garden’s greatest resource. Special talent such as gardening experience is always a bonus, but definitely not a requirement. A willingness to learn, to do your best and to take pride in your work goes a long way when volunteering at Rotary Botanical Gardens! Whether it’s weeding in the garden, cashiering in the gift shop, taking tickets at a special event or guiding school children on a tour of the gardens, there is a volunteer job (or jobs!) that is right for you. Our volunteer coordinator can discuss volunteer options with you and guide you to the area that fits you best.
