Volunteers also help coordinate the Master Gardener Program by doing mailings and office work. Volunteer Plant Health Advisors answer home horticulture questions. Annually a daylong event has been offered to connect interested youth with non-profit organizations needing teen volunteers. Schools are invited to send both middle and high school students to experience first hand the needs of local organizations. Youth move from booth to booth where there is an opportunity to ask questions, collect print materials, and if interested, sign up to be contacted for a specific activity.
All participants leave with a directory of non-profits countywide to facilitate future contacts.
