Get Involved with Loveland Learning Garden

At Loveland Learning Garden, we thrive on community support to bring our mission to life—fostering lifelong connections to the wonders of the natural world. Whether you’re looking to dig in and get your hands dirty or support us behind the scenes, there’s a way for everyone to help us grow!

Ways to Get Involved

1. Volunteer
From digging in the dirt to planning behind the scenes, volunteers are at the heart of everything we do. Whether you have just a few hours to spare or want to make a regular commitment, there’s a role for you! No previous experience is necessary—we’ll provide all the training you need.

Here are some ways you can help:

  • Hands-On Gardening and Trail Maintenance: Join our Dirt Squad or assist with seasonal upkeep of our nature trail and school gardens. These roles are great for both one-time projects and ongoing contributions.

  • Education Support: Lead or assist with school lessons, after-school enrichment programs, or summer camps. A background in education or working with children is helpful but not required.

  • Group Volunteering: Perfect for businesses, community groups, or families looking to make an impact together through one-time or recurring opportunities.

  • Professional Skills & Behind-the-Scenes Support: Share your expertise in planning, outreach, fundraising & grants, marketing, or other specialties to help us grow.

  • Specialized Opportunities: Have a background in education, gardening, or working with kids? Certified Volunteer Naturalists and Master Gardeners are always welcome!
