Garden Volunteering
The MSU Tollgate Garden volunteers are a dedicated group of individuals with a love for gardening and a passion for sharing their knowledge. Our mission is to assist, enable and encourage our members to use their knowledge and experience to help people of southeast Michigan enrich their lives through gardening, good gardening practices, and natural resources management.
Anyone is welcome to join. We do not have a membership fee, though contributions are accepted as a means to defray expenses. Individuals interesting in earning MSU Extension Master Gardener hours are often interested in volunteering with our programs, but this is not a requirement to participate. Our garden webpage provides more information about the types of gardens at the farm. For even more information on garden volunteering, check out our Garden Volunteer Orientation presentation
