2nd Saturday Volunteer Work Days

Come garden with us at KBGA every month- we will hold volunteer work days the 2nd Saturday of every month, March through October. Volunteers plan an important role in the beauty of KBGA's gardens and grounds and we need YOU!!

Each month a group of enthusiastic volunteers will join the KBGA staff to tackle a specific project in the gardens where we will "detail" a certain area from head to toe. Volunteering at the Gardens is a great way to meet new gardening friends and learn some valuable tips you can use in your own garden. We will begin the day with a 5-10 minute mini course on a seasonally appropriate garden topic. No experience needed, we'll provide any necessary training on site. If you are planning to join us for a Volunteer Saturday, please RSVP by calling 865-862-8717 or email our Volunteer Coordinator, Vicki Baumgartner at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . Your RSVP will help us to prepare tools and tasks for the number of helpers expected to attend. But, of course, if you find yourself available at the last minute, we would still love to have you join us!!

Volunteers will meet in the Visitor Center Office to sign in. Please bring your garden gloves!

A special thanks to all of our wonderful Volunteers that have helped us out on many projects and special events!!
