Do you love gardens and gardening? The UCSC Arboretum & Botanic Garden has a wonderful community of staff, students, and volunteers ready to welcome you. Opportunities include staffing our gift shop and retail nursery and working to care for our gardens and greenhouses.

To learn more, join us at one of our monthly information sessions that lasts 45 minutes and includes an easy walk through the gardens to visit a few of our volunteer groups at work.

To attend a session, please fill out our simple volunteer interest form at the bottom of our volunteer webpage found here: https://arboretum.ucsc.edu/get-involved/become-a-volunteer/

If you would like to attend but need a different day and/or have mobility issues, please let us know in the “Notes” section of the Interest Form.

Thank You!
