Description: Many of you may have grown up in a world full of trees, open fields, and public parks–or even just a backyard–where you had the opportunity to view nature at work. Children these days aren't so privileged, especially in Los Angeles. The Daniel Webster Garden was established to teach children growing up in an urban area about the environment. Join us as we create new plots, remove weeds and brush, and add new plants. The Belmar Child and Family Center run the Daniel Webster Education Garden. The Center is a child guidance clinic that provides, among other forms of therapy, horticulture therapy. The Center and Daniel Webster Middle School share the Garden.

WHAT DO VOLUNTEERS DO IN THE GARDEN?
The work is seasonal and deals with the care and maintenance of various areas of the one acre garden. Weeding is always needed, more so in the growing season. Care of vegetable beds might be done, if that is your interest. There are 10 flowering areas: 2 rose areas, 5 tropical areas-2 with small ponds, 2 mixed flower beds, 1 cactus/succulent area, 2 lawn areas and a small orchard.
No garden experience is necessary as most tasks can be taught at the event.
We have all the tools necessary unless you prefer your own hand tools. We have gloves, knee cushions, clippers, hoes, shovels, pick axe, rakes, hand tools etc. We have a cool propagation room where you might work with potted plants. You might dig up and plant new garden vegetable beds or harvest form existing beds.
