Natural Areas Support - Bok Tower Gardens
ORGANIZATION: Volunteer Polk
Please visit the new page to apply.
Boke Tower Gardens is seeking volunteers to help restore and preserve the conservation lands with the land management team. Tasks include eliminating invasive plants and weeds that are depriving native plants from getting the proper nutrients and water needed for growth. Additionally, some light landscaping will allow the gardens to show their natural beauty and keep walkways safe for visitors.
Volunteers will be needed for shifts Monday through Friday from 8am to 12pm primarily. This opportunity does require a lot of bending, kneeling, reaching, and working outside. Sunscreen, headwear, and water are highly recommended.
"Bok Tower Gardens has offered some of Florida’s most remarkable experiences to more than 23 million visitors since 1929. The Gardens offer unparalleled opportunities for artistic, cultural, personal and spiritual enrichment. At Bok Tower Gardens there is something to discover for visitors of all ages."
