Community Partners are like-minded organizations that collaborate to further each other’s mission through shared values in conservation, environmental education, sustainability, and community engagement. These partnerships are typically non-monetary and focus on mutual support—such as exchanging services, co-hosting events, cross-promotion, and engaging volunteers.

By working together, Community Partners and the garden expand their collective impact, deepen community connections, and advance their shared commitment to environmental stewardship and public education.

Spend meaningful time giving back to the environment while building teamwork among your staff by volunteering at Norfolk Botanical Garden. Your team will have the opportunity to work alongside our expert Horticulture Team, gain new skills, and make a direct impact on the beauty and health of the Garden during a 2–4-hour volunteer experience. Ideal for groups of 10–25 employees, these outings foster collaboration, stewardship, and a deeper connection to nature.

We encourage a donation to support the coordination of your volunteer outing and help advance Norfolk Botanical Garden’s mission to inspire people through the wonder of plants and nature.
