I cannot say enough good things about my experience volunteering at the Conservatory of Flowers. Beautiful place, wonderful fellow volunteers, and their program is very well-organized and supportive. I highly recommend volunteering at the Conservatory to anyone who loves horticulture and historic landmarks, and who enjoys interacting with visitors from around the world. If we had not moved to Nevada I would still be there once a week!
