About

McKinley Rose Garden - Volunteers are needed to keep this beautiful rose garden beautiful! The garden is located at 33rd and H Streets in McKinley Park. Volunteers will work independently on their own schedule to help dead-head the public garden’s 1,200 rose bushes. Both newcomers and experienced volunteers are needed working weekly or bi-weekly in a beautiful oasis of green grass and blooming roses. Experienced volunteers use their own by-pass clippers and work gloves to remove spent flowers and place into plastic garbage cans provided at site. Volunteers are reminded of the need with email updates. Volunteers report their time worked via email after completion. Inexperienced volunteers can schedule a 15 minute training session and then work on their own. Contact cecily@insidepublications.com for more information. The garden is managed and maintained by nonprofit Friends of East Sacramento.
