The backbone of WHS events and programs is the volunteer spirit of its members. If you would like to be part of this group of generous gardeners and garden friends, call the WHS message phone at (360) 738-6833.
The largest number of volunteers are needed during the annual Tour of Private Gardens. You might be helping garden owners prepare for the tour, guide visitors around a garden, or help manage the flow of traffic to and from the gardens.
Other volunteers help produce The Social Gardener or set up for meetings.
WHS is an all-volunteer organization.
The mission of the Whatcom Horticultural Society is to expand community interest in gardening through educational activities.
We sponsor a wide variety of opportunities locally, providing exposure to historical, artistic, technical and cultural aspects of regional and worldwide gardening. We believe that an exploration of the many diverse aspects of gardening will promote increased skills and knowledge resulting in the beautification of public and private gardens in the Pacific Northwest.
Membership in the Whatcom Horticultural Society is open to all upon payment of the annual fee. Please see Membership for details.
