Volunteers: Apply online now!

If you are a Rutland youth aged 16-22 and want to dig in the dirt and do good this summer, please join Rutland Volunteer Garden Service!

As a volunteer, you will get to know new people, provide a very important service to homeowners, and have a lot of fun.

This is an unpaid position. However, volunteer work is an important part of a person's job skills training. Having such work on a resume shows that you are not only reliable and multifaceted, but that you are a caring person. That can go a long way with employers and colleges!
