Open Volunteer Shifts 

If you notice any extra spots after we allow seedsters to sign up for a drop off time, consider signing up for open shifts to provide extra support to staff as we work on moving seedlings and transplanting them in our greenhouse. All supplies and training will be provided by county staff. 

Seedling Transplanting and Materials Return (Seedsters volunteers only)

We will welcome you and your seedlings into our hoop house at Lebanon Hills Regional Park starting March 25. Because space is limited, we’ll ask that you sign up for one of our transplanting events beginning in March.  When you come, you’ll have an opportunity to help us with the following tasks:

1. Work with a staff member to check in your equipment
2. Transplant your seedlings from their germination trays into larger growing containers
3. Wash out your old germination tray(s) and dome(s) so they’re ready for next year
