Educational Gardens

Discover -- and help others discover a world of wonder and inspiration as an Educational Garden volunteer. As a volunteer, you have unlimited opportunities to share your talents, explore new areas, and connect with people of all ages. Volunteers are needed seasonally to help with planting, maintaining, and harvesting our CRPD educational gardens. Gardening experience is helpful but not necessary. All ages are welcome, so bring the whole family! Volunteers will learn firsthand about the significant impact an educational garden has in the community.
