One of the great strengths of Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden is our vital corps of volunteers who provide assistance in every aspect of caring for the property and operational functions. From garden maintenance to special events to educational tours to membership support and more, our volunteers are crucial to our operations ensuring every visitor has a wonderful experience.

Not only will you provide each visitor to DSBG a wonderful experience, but volunteering itself is a rewarding, fulfilling way to spend your time. It’s also full of amazing benefits, including:

  • A free Garden membership at any level after clocking 10 hours of volunteer service at the Garden

  • 15% discount at The Garden Store and The Trailhead Store (not redeemable on alcohol)

  • Spring & Winter Volunteer Gatherings to socialize and celebrate with other volunteers 

  • Pop-up guided walks through the Garden and free passes to select events

  • Knowing you are making a difference!
