Gardens on Anderton thrives because of the dedication and energy of our volunteers. From seasonal work parties to everyday maintenance, every task—big or small—helps our gardens flourish. Whether you’re passionate about native plants, excited to learn something new, or simply looking for a positive way to connect with your community, there is a place for you here. Our volunteer activities include planting, weeding, watering, carpentry, event support, and more. No previous experience is required; all ages and skill levels are welcome. Tools and guidance are always provided, and each session is a chance to meet neighbours, spend time outdoors, and support a space that brings joy to many. Getting involved is simple—join a scheduled work party or reach out to learn about upcoming volunteer opportunities.
