Volunteers Wanted!

‌ volunteers 2a

Do you happen to have an hour a week to spare this spring/summer?

Please consider volunteering at Garden by the Sea! The garden allows people to combine their love of the outdoors with a much-appreciated contribution to the Ocean Shores community. We can accommodate individuals’ personal schedules, interests, and abilities to work within their needs. Here are a few of the most common ways you can help.

  • Come to the garden one day per week to water during the summer.
  • “Adopt” a flower bed or other common area of the garden to regularly weed and water during the growing season.
  • Attend work parties that are not only productive, but social and fun!

Thank you for considering volunteering at Garden by the Sea!

If you want to sign up to volunteer, please call 425-255-4025 or email at info@GardenByTheSeaOceanShores.org .
