Horticulture Volunteers


Do you have a green thumb?  Are you a master gardener without a garden?  Audubon is looking for volunteers to help our horticulture staff keep Audubon Park and Audubon Zoo lush and beautiful. 

Volunteer duties include watering, weeding, mulching, planting, and starting plants from seeds or cuttings.

You only need to attend the Volunteer Orientation to get started!  There is a one time fee of $35 for the cost of your uniform and volunteer handbook.  Volunteers are needed Monday – Friday from 8:00am until 3:00pm.

The next Volunteer Orientation will be held on
Saturday, September 4th from 9am - 12noon.   

Apply today to become a Horticulture Volunteer or contact the Zoo's Volunteer Coordinator by email or at (504) 212-5194 with questions.

 

Endangered Hornbill

Audubon Nature Institute is honored to steward the conservation of endangered hornbills. We are currently supporting 5 adopted hornbill nests through the Hornbill Research Foundation’s nest adoption project that assists local communities in monitoring and studying hornbill nesting in Thailand.
