Training of Volunteers will be done once a week beginning on Thursday, January 24th and continuing through Thursday, April 25th. Training will be three hours each meeting from 1:30pm until 4:30pm. After completing the initial training volunteers will be asked to complete 40 hours of volunteer work.
We need volunteers to help with one or two of the following tasks including answering questions that come into the office from phone, email, or walk-in clientele, School programs and other youth activities, lastly we would like to start a 4-H horticulture program and need a trained volunteer for that program as well. Other ways to fulfill the volunteer hour requirement would include helping with clinics where we answer questions for people who stop by, writing articles for The Gardener's Dirt newsletter, giving gardening presentations, and other educational activities.
