We love our volunteers!

One of the most precious gifts a person can make in these hectic times is the gift of their time and talent!  We have a very small staff and we can’t do our jobs without the support of our wonderful volunteers.  Our combination of art and nature seems to bring out the best in people, because our volunteers are fabulous, friendly and fun. The only thing they lack is more of them! Click here for the Volunteer Application.
