Volunteer
Give back to nature
You can start here.
At Holden Forests & Gardens, every tree planted, every research study completed, every guest touched by the wonder and beauty of plants is supported by the efforts of a volunteer.
Our volunteers are valuable members of our community. Their dedicated commitment, positive attitudes and impressive knowledge make our work possible.
How to Apply
Getting started is easy and all online! Just watch a short video, view our online orientation, and complete our application and waiver – it takes about 25 minutes.
All you need is a working email address and internet access to volunteer with us.
HF&G Volunteer Communities
Today’s volunteers want to share their abilities, interests, time, and commitment with us in different ways, depending on what works best for them.
Our HF&G Volunteer Communities will help you do that.
