Volunteer

All opportunities are appropriate for complete beginners, but if you have a special skill you'd like to share, please let your shift leader know or reach out to volunteer@wyldecenter.org.

Accessibility of our sites is a work in progress, but we will do everything we can to make all opportunities available. For more information about accessing a garden or to request accommodation, please reach out to volunteer@wyldecenter.org.

Opportunities are available for nearly any age group. For minors under the age of 16, we usually ask that a guardian be present, but please see details of the specific opportunity you are interested in.

Minors under the age of 18 must have a waiver signed by a guardian prior to volunteering.

Volunteering is a great way to practice language skills and make connections in a new community. Many of our shifts are led by Spanish-speaking staff members, which will be noted in the shift description for those opportunities. We do not require documentation or an i.d. (except on very rare occasions, where noted), although we do ask all volunteers to sign a liability waiver.

If you would like to schedule a volunteer opportunity for a specific group, please contact volunteer@wyldecenter.org.

Group volunteer opportunities are available by appointment please contact volunteer@wyldecenter.org to sign-up as a group. We have had many school clubs, corporate groups and service clubs come together for a fun day of seeding or up-potting with our nursery.

Youth groups: All of our gardens require one chaperone per five youth volunteers. We may accept volunteers 7+ years old, but we prefer 12+ years old.
