If you enjoy wandering around out of doors in a lovely place and would be willing to take other people along with you, please inquire about this position! We will provide training, we have tour materials for you to work with, and our gardener will highlight what plants are of interest each week. The tours are on Saturday mornings from 11-noon. Tour guides sign up to lead tours, usually taking one tour every month or two. Groups are usually small and friendly and are happy to have someone guide them through the garden. Come join a tour to see what it's like! Check our website for scheduling details. All volunteers must be 18 or older.
