Business Volunteerism
Business volunteerism is becoming an ever increasingly important aspect of public relations, and the need for volunteers at Bedrock Gardens is great. Volunteers can help with events and with our daily openings, can serve as "ambassadors," or garden docents, or join our Hands In Dirt program. Or open the garden in the spring and close it in the fall. Opportunities are available both during work time Tues-Fri and some weekends.
