Volunteers for a Beautiful Hartford
Volunteer: Cultivate Change
"I always wondered why someone didn't do something about that. Then I realized I was somebody." ~ Lily Tomlin
We welcome people to join us as much as they can. The best way to keep track of what we are doing is to get on our email list and watch our Facebook page.
We will have "pop-up" project days starting in spring to tackle specific areas.
We have people that tend to various gardens and may decide together when they will work on their area - maybe you can join them?
We are committed to meeting on Monday evenings from 6-7pm (weather permitting) to care for the Alpine Garden and Riverwalk garden area. We stop at 7pm and sit and enjoy our work together!
NEW THIS YEAR! We're meeting ALSO on Thursday Mornings at the Centennial Park Pavilion from 8:30am -9:30am.Plan to stay for a cup of coffee and a few laughs with other volunteers.
As of April 2025 we are a Participating Agency with Heart and Homestead of Washington County
During the Growing Season
Help plant flowers in urns and planters, adopting a plot, participate in garden clean-up events, joining our one-hour weeding Mondays, and getting involved in other beautifying activities.
Stay updated by visiting this page and our Facebook page for upcoming opportunities!
Help With Watering
Drive our lawn tractor through downtown and never leave your seat as you water lamp post baskets, urns, and gardens. We have a crew so the schedule is shared among several people! We always can use more help - maybe just a day or two as you have time.
Outreach Opportunities
Help us connect with the community by manning a table, participating in parades, promoting events, and spreading the word.
Are you a photographer? Videographer? Facebook or Instagram guru? Could you help with contacting our volunteers? Would you help with fundraising? Grant Writing?

If you enjoy gardening, have a desire to be more active in the community or maybe you've been moved to join us when you can. Volunteers For A Beautiful Hartford would welcome your help. Send us a note and tell us what you might be interested in doing. We will be happy to hear from you and answer any questions.
