This opportunity it postponed for now. SIGN UP ANYWAY and we'll let you know as soon as Seattle Parks let's us garden again. The weeds are multiplying! We'll need all the help we can get once we're allowed to get back in there.
Thank you!

Volunteer Park Trust seeks avid gardeners to help us for a couple hours once a month at Seattle's Volunteer Park.
We host our 2nd Saturday Work Party each month from 10:00 AM to Noon. Volunteers help weed, prune, remove litter & invasive plants, and mulch garden beds. No experience is needed. We provide the tools and gloves.
We meet at the Black Sun Sculpture in the center of Volunteer Park (1247 15th Ave E, Seattle 98112 in the Capitol Hill neighborhood) across from the Seattle Asian Art Museum. We welcome drop-ins! If you arrive late, look for our green sign board to tell you where in the park we are working.
This work is vital to keeping Volunteer Park beautiful because Seattle Parks & Recreation does not have the resources to properly maintain the park's 48 acres.
We are especially in need of volunteers during the fall and winter months:
