Riverside Teen Corps

Want to Help Beautify Your Community? Need Service Hours? Interested in gaining green job skills?
Join Riverside Park Conservancy’s Teen Corps!
During the summer months Riverside Park Conservancy provides an experiential learning program for teenage volunteers interested in learning basic horticultural knowledge and skills. Volunteers work closely with our zone gardeners to care for spring plantings, prepare park areas for fall plantings, maintain key horticultural sites, and keep the park safe, clean, and healthy. High school teens (rising freshmen — graduating seniors) are welcome.
Horticulture Volunteers :
  • Assist in caring for diverse plantings of trees, shrubs, vines, perennials, grasses and bulbs
  • Assist with seasonal landscaping work including weeding, watering, removing invasive species, mulching, aerating tree pits, and general cleanup
  • Assist with preparation, staffing, and cleanup for group volunteer groups
  • Assist in maintaining equipment and supplies needed to perform weekly tasks
Every Tuesday and Thursday this summer from July 8th to August 28th, 2014.
