Volunteer

Volunteering is an impactful way to contribute to our mission.

With opportunities in events, administrative support, education, and gardening, there’s a role for everyone.

Interested in an area, but not sure you have the skills for a particular role? We provide training, which makes volunteering at the Garden a great way to learn new skills. Volunteers must be at least 15 years old with an accompanying adult, or 16 years of age or older to volunteer independently. View a list of volunteer opportunities.

Youth Volunteer Program

The Youth Volunteer Program engages teenagers in hands-on outdoor work at the Garden during the summertime.

Under the mentorship of STEM professionals, participants gain real-world experience in horticulture, environmental education, and plant conservation, allowing them to explore careers in the green sector, cultivate their personal connection to the environment, and contribute to the work of the Garden in an authentic and meaningful way.

This program is made possible in part by the Alabama Department of Agriculture and Industries.

2026 Application Deadline: March 27
