Castle Rock Native Garden Volunteer Workday

Roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty at the Robert C. Kirkwood Entrance at Castle Rock State Park!

Join Sempervirens Fund in tending the garden and learning about the native plants. Volunteers will remove invasive plants and maintenance cages used to protect the plants from browsing deer. Work will be moderately strenuous and may take place on sloped and uneven terrain. Tools and gloves will be provided, but if you have your own equipment, we suggest bringing it along. We recommend wearing a long-sleeved shirt, pants, and durable shoes. Some snacks will be provided, but please bring your own lunch and water.
