The arena of public gardens is fast becoming the horticultural employment field of the future. We offer on-site housing for three interns.
Internships run from three to twelve months, duration is negotiable.
The size and intimacy of our garden offers a unique, full-spectrum view of the public garden field. Internships may be in one area or on a rotational basis for an overall experience in how a public garden functions. Aid staff with adult and children's education programs, docent for garden tours, help coordinate special events, assist with interpretive signage, introduce guest speakers and possibly teach basic gardening workshops. May include ecological restoration of native areas and conservation projects. An excellent opportunity to learn the plant records field from the ground up.
