Kirstenbosch
Botanical Gardens uses volunteers in 24 different areas, ranging from potting
up some plants to pollinating others; teaching school children environmental
education to introducing adult visitors to the wonders of the Cape Floral
Kingdom; from giving guided tours of the Garden to developing new theme
walks and working on the Information Desks.
Our
volunteers come from all walks of life and have a shared love of the Gardens
and a willingness to to be part of the team that keeps Kirstenbosch on the
map. They are a dynamic group of people with a wide variety of skills. We
endeavour to find a niche to suit all would - be volunteers, and try to
ensure that the time they spend here is especially rewarding If you are interested in finding out more about volunteering at Kirstenbosch, please contact Tessa Rosier at the Botanical Society Tel 021 671 5468 email kbranch@botanicalsociety.org.za.
