One of the primary missions of the UCR Botanic Gardens is to act as an educational resource for the community. The Gardens seek volunteers who want to learn more about the Gardens, its history, and plant communities, and share that information with school children and others. We will be offering Docent Training Classes that will meet every Thursday morning from 9am-12pm for six weeks, beginning February 3, 2022.

Please contact Janine Almanzor, Botanic Gardens Curator, at Janine.almanzor@ucr.edu if you are interested in attending the classes or would like more information.

We hope you will consider becoming part of our Docent team and join us in fulfilling our mission as an educational resource for the community.
