Volunteering at the Arboretum

The volunteer application and consent form are now "interactive" pdfs so they can be filled out, saved to your computer, and emailed to kathryn.jeffers@msstate.edu. If you have a digital signature you can use that in the "signature" area. You can still print them and fill them out the old way too! Whichever you prefer.

VOLUNTEERS at The Crosby Arboretum fill a variety of vital roles, both behind the scenes tending plants, maintaining trails, stuffing envelopes, and assisting with construction and before the public as tour guides, and admission greeters. The Crosby Arboretum welcomes volunteers with a wide range of interests and talents.
