We are looking for 2 volunteers to join our Education Department to assist with cultivating and propagating the Coleus in our Coleus garden. Additionally, these volunteers would learn how to give planting demonstrations to students groups. If you have a green thumb, enjoy being outdoors and want to share plant knowledge with children, this could be a great fit for you.
