A weekday commitment of three hours, once a week, is needed. Water gardeners help maintain the water plants displayed in three Garden ponds. Duties include grooming, skimming, propagating and fertilizing. Garden Shop assistants like being busy, serving customers, stocking merchandise, answering the phone and interacting with Garden visitors. Plant records assistants are detail-oriented volunteers who help inventory Garden plots and update computer records.
Extensive training is provided, so a six-month commitment is requested.
Librarians are needed to help in our research library, one of the best resources in the area for information on tropical botany and horticulture.
