HEAR FROM OUR VOLUNTEERS

“The work itself reduces stress. The people I meet are friendly and interesting. The staff is dedicated and appreciative.”

“I’ve been a member for over 30 years and have spent many hours enjoying the beauty, I feel like it is MY garden. That is the reason I pick up any litter I find on my walks and the reason I continue volunteering.”

“I am so happy to be working outdoors after years at a desk job! I love the fact I am helping a community institution”
