Secret Gardens Of Lake Forest Park - there are many volunteer positions open which are needed to have a successful tour.  Most needed are docents and "check in" volunteers on the day of.  We also need people with computer skills to help with the organization of the tour.

​

Otter Garden - Work alongside other LFPGC volunteers to weed, plant, and prune this beautiful scenic spot in Animal Acres Park.  Check with Linda Holman as she is the organizer for this.

​

Wreath Making - We need your evergreen and yard trimmings to assemble into wreaths as not everyone has easy access to conifers, etc. to assemble into holiday wreaths.  Please see Mark if you want your clippings to be put to good use and help brighten the holidays for everyone.

​

Lake Forest Park Commons "Involvement Fair" - We need 1 or 2 volunteers to share information about the Garden Club and its involvement with the city of LFP and The Commons at the fair on Feb 7th for about 4 hours inside the Commons.  Mark has details.

​

Miller Garden Tour - In April (exact date not announced yet) we need someone to organize car pools to get to the gardens.  There are only a few cars allowed and we have openings for 12 participants.

​

Plant growers - We need everyone to start thinking about how they can contribute to the success of our Spring Plant Sale.  We need people who will divide plants in their yards and grow them on to success before May of 2027.  Remember, our plant sale is our number 1 money maker for the club.

​

Plant Sitters - We need several people to "Plant Sit" plants that have been potted up for our Spring Plant sale but need care through the winter/spring months.  If you can help please speak with our Plant Sale committee.

​

Plant Label Makers - Gale Hall has given the club a generous donation of a P-Touch Label maker.  It would be great for someone to use it to provide plant labels for potted plants at our plant sale.  Providing common names for the plants would be great but if you are familiar with genus/species that would be a bonus.  Challenge yourself.

Most importantly, volunteering gives you the opportunity to connect with others, give back to your community, support local environmental and horticultural efforts, and experience the satisfaction of seeing your efforts bloom.
