There are many opportunities to show your support and get involved by volunteering your time and talents at Ragdale.
Become a Docent
Show off Ragdale’s beautiful grounds and buildings and share the story of Ragdale’s history and current mission as a volunteer docent. Trained docents lead tours, including studio visits, May through October.
Join the Ragweeders
Join our volunteer gardening team and get down and dirty! Ragweeders are especially needed in the spring and summer, when our chef depends on the vegetable garden to supplement residents’ meals.
