Do you enjoy history? Do you like gardening? Volunteer with Prince William County's Office of Historic Preservation and help keep the site's gardens and landscaping beautiful! 

Garden volunteers help maintain the flower beds, herb gardens, vegetable gardens, and other special historical plantings at our parks.  This job may also include some landscaping, mulching, propagation, transplanting, weeding, watering, and harvesting. Gardeners also assist with periodic site clean-up days and historic programs involving the gardens they maintain, if they would like to.
