Descanso Gardens in La Canada Flintridge will host a virtual information session for prospective volunteers on May 17, providing community members an opportunity to support one of Southern California’s premier botanical attractions.
The session, scheduled from 10 to 11 a.m. via Zoom, will introduce participants to the garden’s history, mission and available volunteer opportunities.
Those interested in volunteering must complete an online interest form through the Descanso Gardens website, https://www.descansogardens.
