Become a Junior Explorer Docent for Friends of Edgewood and help children of all ages experience the wonder of nature. No special expertise or botanical knowledge is required to be a Junior Explorer Docent. Only a passion for nature and a love of kids.

You can choose the age group you relate to best. You can choose the field trips and the dates that fit your schedule. It is easy to prepare to be a Junior Explorer Docent:

• Join other docents on a hike to share information and interpretive techniques
• Attend enrichment programs and special training workshops
• Review our "how to" resources

If this sounds like something you would be interested in, we’d love to hear from you. If you're unsure whether it's the right fit, contact us to tag along during a Junior Explorer walk.

***Junior Explorer program volunteers need to be 18 or older to be on their own. Age 15-17 must be accompanied by a guardian throughout volunteering.
