Gardening/Horticulture Education Youth Programs - "Branching Out!" Summer Camp - 3 weeks of camps AM shifts only

(Description for this camp is listed below)

Frelinghuysen Arboretum's education staff is looking for a volunteer to help us with our "Branching Out!" youth camp. The volunteer assigned to the camp will be needed to help set up, tear down, and clean up each day and assist campers and staff throughout the daily activities. 

**For continuity in camp experiences for the participating children, staff would prefer volunteers who can be available and commit to assisting throughout the entire week of camp.**

Hours of this camp will be from 9 am to 3 pm from Monday through Friday. Volunteers are asked to be available 15 minutes early each day to help set up and tear down. Each week on the schedule will be run as a new camp. 

Branching Out is a hands-on gardening program for youth who are encouraged to play in the dirt! This program is both fun and educational as it lets each participant garden in their own plot where all tools, seeds, plants, and instructions are included. Volunteers should come prepared for outdoor work with proper attire (Closed toe shoes, gloves, sunscreen, etc.) and plenty of water.
