NATIVE PLANT GARDEN VOLUNTEER

Preston’s Place is an interactive space where the education department runs programming focused on native plants. Volunteers will help the education department facilitate nature play activities, interact with guests, and do some light gardening . We hope to inspire kids and adults to become more connected with nature and hopefully learn about the native plants and animals they can find in their backyards. Volunteers are not required to have previous experience or extensive knowledge about gardening, native habitats, or educational programming but a passion for wildlife conservation is a must!
