Location: Alcatraz
Join our garden volunteer crews each week to re-establish the extraordinary historic gardens of Alcatraz.
Activities will include clearing invasive weeds and brush and salvaging remnants plants. Through the project, volunteers will be introduced to the stories of the gardens and have the opportunity to visit some areas not accessible to the public. As an added bonus, garden volunteers arrive on Alcatraz before other visitors, so you can experience the island during the most tranquil time of day.
Registration Required. This is not a drop-in program. An application is required, as well as a commitment to volunteering on a weekly or bi-weekly basis for 2-3 months.
CONTACT INFORMATION: (415) 561-3062 or cashford@gardenconservancy.org.
