Volunteer

COVID-19 UPDATE: Masking is currently optional for volunteers doing outdoor work and strongly encouraged for indoor work.  We will continue to distance indoors and outdoors.

We love having extra help at our events and in our gardens! In fact, we couldn't do what we do without the help of our dedicated and supportive volunteers. Recurring volunteer opportunities to help out are listed on our Hands on Atlanta page. Sign up there or message us if you have any special inquiries. 

Who Are Our Volunteers?

Part of what we love about our volunteers is developing relationships with folx from our diverse Atlanta and Decatur communities. Please see below for some specific information about volunteering with us.

How To Volunteer

With many regular service opportunities, we welcome your help and encourage you to DIG IN!

Volunteer opportunities are available in our gardens and during special events. 

Our recurring volunteer opportunities are listed on Hands On Atlanta page (Click Here!) where you can sign up to volunteer with us.

Group volunteer opportunities are available by appointment only please contact volunteer@wyldecenter.org to sign-up as a group. We have had many school clubs, corporate groups and service clubs come together to support our garden spaces. 

Please Note: We recommend water, bug repellent, sunscreen, closed-toe shoes, and appropriate work clothes when working in the garden. If there is a Health Advisory Warning, we advise that seniors and youth do not volunteer with us outdoors. If it is precipitating heavily or below 35 degrees, the workday will be canceled.
