We rely on our volunteers to help keep the Gardens looking beautiful and running smoothly. 

Current volunteer opportunities at the Botanical Gardens include: 

  • Weekday docent: Welcoming visitors in the Greenhouse or Outdoor Gardens. 
  • Plant Sales and Special Events – Join our staff for these special endeavors.  Many friends working together make for great events!
  • Working alongside a horticulturist in the gardens or greenhouse.


For more information, contact botanicalgardens@uncc.edu, or fill out an application here.

 **Please note: Due to the current state of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are requiring that all in-person volunteers attest that they have been fully vaccinated before coming on campus.
