VOLUNTEER ORIENTATION

We will review the core principles informing Arlington Garden. We will discuss regenerative gardening, rainwater harvesting and catchment, habitat gardening, mulching, composting, and climate appropriate planting. After discussing these principles in the orientation, new volunteers will learn how to put them into practice each week. Time permitting, we will briefly overview tool maintenance and safety. If you wish to start volunteering, attending the orientation is mandatory before you begin. However, all volunteers (particularly veteran volunteers who are interested in learning more about regenerative gardening, or volunteers who haven't been by the garden in a long time) are very welcome to attend.
