Volunteer

Individual Volunteering

Volunteers are essential to the success of Leu Gardens. Whether you give a few hours a month or a week or even a few hours for an event, volunteering is vital for the growth of Leu Gardens.  A wide range of volunteer opportunities are available throughout the year for individuals to organizations.  You can volunteer to work in the gardens, give tours of the gardens or historic home or even help out at special events. Volunteers must be 16 years or older and it’s great for high schoolers to get their service hours.  Volunteers enjoy a variety of special privileges including training, field trips, potlucks with special lectures, workshops and social hours.
