This experience began with a tour of the beautiful botanical gardens, before the group was separated into different tasks. I was in a small group tasked with painting a fence around the children’s area. We painted the fence dark brown to make it a more neutral color.
The Botanical Gardens is truly one-of-one. I left my volunteer experience being genuinely happy that what I did helps the garden and what they seek to accomplish.
I had a wonderful time learning and helping at the botanical gardens!
I had fun! We toured the botanical gardens and then cleaned pots for reuse. I had the opportunity to meet other volunteers and get to know more about the Fayetteville community. It was interesting to learn about the different gardens, plants, and wildlife in the area, while also participating in the Make a Difference day activities!
