All hands are needed for this important event which we are hosting at the request of our very important partner, Hilltop Arboretum. April is a very busy month, so if you can squeeze in a shift on any of the two days, we would greatly appreciate it! While the event is not open to the public this year, you are welcome to bring guests.
