Knoxville Botanical Garden and Arboretum

Help Us Beautify the Streets Around Knoxville's Botanical Garden!

Join volunteers from Knox County Master Gardeners, Native Plant Rescue, and Knoxville Botanical Garden and Arboretum for a morning of community service, fresh air, and good company - then stick around to soak in the late-summer blooms!

• Where: Knoxville Botanical Garden and Arboretum, 2743 Wimpole Avenue
• Parking: Free parking and sign-in across the street from the Visitors Center on Wimpole Avenue

Grab a friend, bring the kids, or come solo - volunteers of all ages are welcome! Together, we'll pick up litter on the streets surrounding the Garden, making a real, visible difference in our community.

We've got you covered with:
✅ Litter pickers
✅ Gloves
✅ Safety vests
✅ Trash bags

What to bring: Sunscreen, bug spray, and water. Please wear closed-toe shoes and long pants are recommended.

The best part? Once the work is done, reward yourself with a peaceful stroll through the Botanical Garden - admission is always free.

It's a win-win: a cleaner Knoxville and a beautiful garden to enjoy. Come be part of it!
