Each week
volunteers learn how to plant and tend all the plants in the park's
8000 sq. feet of gardens. In addition, they learn the basic design
concepts that we have employed in creating our award winning
gardens. Many volunteers have worked with us to create exciting
gardens at their homes from the concepts and tutoring we provided
them while they tended the park's gardens. Join our veteran garden
tenders: Richard Tilley, Denise Browning, Jim Angrabright, Larry
Clary, Lara Kastner, Susan Fontana, Allen Blaurock, Petrina Patti,
Joyce Coffee, Teddy Varndell, Donna Nelson, Doug Wood and the Park
Kids Grow Students.
