We have a well equipped shed so no need to bring anything. Just wear closed-toe shoes and clothing you don't mind getting a little dirty!

Whose Help Is Required

We welcome individual volunteers, as well as groups from businesses and community organizations.

Special Requirements

Kids and adults comfortable with using garden tools and getting a little bit dirty!

Our garden volunteers play an important role in making The Children™s Room a welcoming and peaceful oasis for grieving children, teens, and families.
