How you help	Volunteers are vital to operations at South Coast Botanic Garden. Many of our most important activities at the garden would not be possible without their help and dedication.

About us	The founding membership of the Garden had a vision that has been realized with the cooperative efforts of Los Angles County, the Foundation, and Community. Bursting with color and varied plant and wildlife, the grounds are a spectacular sight. The South Coast Botanic Garden is a treasure to be cherished for this and future generations. The South Coast Botanic Garden delivers education, programs and events offering layered experiences of surprise, adventure, beauty, and serenity through color, texture, sound and light.
