• Horticulture Volunteers work with Arboretum staff to maintain and develop the gardens, care for rare and local fruit orchards, propagate and grow plants in the Nursery and help visitors with their plant selections in the Potting Shed. In addition to learning more about environmentally responsible gardening and plant identification, horticulture volunteers help the Arboretum to grow every week!
