Get InvolvedVolunteer at the Arboretum

The Nasturtiums

The Nasturtiums is the name given to our team of dedicated Arboretum volunteers. They help us by planting, weeding, trimming, removing invasive species, and much more. Our gardens wouldn't look as beautiful as they do without their time and energy.

If you are interested in volunteering in the Arboretum and joining the Nasturtiums, please contact us at arboretum@gustavus.edu
