This is a wonderful opportunity to work within a historical rose garden. The rose garden is located at a museum focused on California history and the first land grant given in California under the Spanish colonial period. This rose garden was planted by Claretian Missionaries back in the 1930s when they owned and cared for the land. This garden needs constant care and maintenance to preserve its beauty and historical significance. We could use all the rose curators possible to come in and help care for the roses. This includes pruning, watering, fertilizing, and deadheading. No experience is required, but they must be available one day to receive training with our garden committee.

18127 S. Alameda St., Rancho Dominguez, CA 90220, US
Mission Statement
To foster community awareness of early California history, culture, and heritage and the Dominguez family through museum programs and educational resources.
Description
We work will all sorts of volunteers serving many goals on the site. We have two main needs at all times that require volunteers. First, we always seek to recruit docent volunteers to lead tours for the public and schools, help at our various public events throughout the year, and join helpful committees to help us serve the community. The second need we have is for gardening volunteers. We have three major gardens on the site: a rose garden, a cactus garden, and a children's garden. We need volunteers at all times to help cultivate these gardens whether it be helping plant new crops for the children's garden or prune our near 100 year old rose garden.
