Virtual Open House for Volunteers

We are recruiting horticultural professionals in the Greater Boston area who are willing to devote at least one weekday a month to teach with us behind prison walls. Our virtual open house is a space for anyone curious about volunteering to find out more about prison garden roles and our team. We will be breaking down all the basics of what we do and who we are. Join us, virtually, Sunday, Feb 6, and learn how you can fit in with our work!
