Our Garden Essential Maintainance Service (GEMS) helps the horticultural crew with planting, weeding, watering and general gardening. Most GEMS are Master Gardeners, but that is not a requirement--just a willingness to dig in the dirt!! This group generally meets on the 2nd Tuesday morning to work for 2 to 3 hours in the flower beds. Another group works every Monday morning for a couple of hours keeping the Southern Inspiration Garden beautiful. Also available is a flexible schedule where you would just come in and work with the crew on an as-needed basis. Garvan Woodland Gardens is located on beautiful Lake Hamilton in Hot Springs, Arkansas.
