  • "I have been a volunteer for four years at the Gardens. There is nothing in the world that is better for the soul than working outside in horticulture, especially in the mornings. The peaceful quiet, the sound and songs of the animals, the dew on the plants, and the satisfaction when visitors ask questions or give compliments."
