Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteers compose a critical part of our staff and provide many services we couldn't offer without their help. As a result, we're working hard to build this vital community volunteer program. Our volunteers assist us with everything from planning and planting new displays to staffing the Welcome Center. They help us in our popular Gift Shop, and serve as guides for a multitude of groups who visit us each year.
