Event Series: Volunteer Gardeners

Do you love working in the garden? We’ve got some you might be interested in. From planting seeds and plants, to weeding, deadheading, and pruning. We can use whatever help you have to offer. Don’t have experience but willing to learn? Work side by side with experienced gardeners, it’s a wonderful learning opportunity for experienced and beginner gardeners alike. It’s one of the best ways to receive practical hands-on experience if you’re a beginning gardener. Our goal is to assure that each garden receives the care it requires.

All volunteers must complete a Botanical Center volunteer form. For more information, contact Lesley Lambert at (401) 680-7250 or [email protected].

Venue

As the seasons begin to change, it's a great time to reconnect with the natural world and slow down. We're excited to partner with the @rwpbotanicalcenter to offer a free Forest Bathing (Shinrin Yoku) session on September 19 at 10 AM with Lee Ann. This guided experience invites you to breathe deeply, notice your surroundings, and open your senses to the sights, sounds, textures, and rhythms of the forest. 

Lee Ann Freitas is the director of the Botanical Center and a Certified Forest Therapist, horticulturist, and a hardcore advocate for all things nature. She creates a welcoming and peaceful environment for participants to slow down, connect with nature, and be present.

The session is free, but registration is limited – sign up online (link in bio)!
