Hello, I am going to be moving to Chilmark for the summer and would like to volunteer. Is there an opportunity to volunteer with the garden?
Rebecca says
Certainly Holly! Right now it is getting some needed rain. When you arrive, come by (on Weds, from 10-12, or call 508-645-3304) We can tour the gardens and talk about what you would like to be involved in. We have a dye garden, various vegetable gardens, and a children’s garden, and we can always use some help! best wishes, Rebecca
