Growing Kirkwood's Parks

Roll up your sleeves and let's get started! Volunteering is a great way to discover your parks and get outdoors. There is no experience needed to volunteer, just come ready to help. Park staff will teach you everything you need to know about each task, tool use, and safety.

Assignment Highlight

Garden in Kirkwood Park or in the Special Business District at downtown Kirkwood. Staff horticulturists lead volunteers as they perform a variety of gardening tasks. Volunteers make a commitment to volunteer one day a week, Monday-Thursday from 8:00 am-11:00 am. Activities include planting weeding, trimming, pruning, deadheading, collecting seeds and other activities as needed. Gardening tools are provided. This volunteer opportunity is open from March-November for individuals 15 years of age and older.

Want to give it a test-run?

Check out our Tag-Along-Tuesdays, where you'll work alongside our weekday volunteers and together help beautify Kirkwood Parks! These events are open to younger volunteers as well, but we do require those under 15 years old come with a trusted adult to supervise them. Click on the images below to register!
