The JC Raulston Arboretum is accepting applications for horticulture internships for 2019. Interns will receive valuable experience in public horticulture, plant id, plant records, gardening, propagation and much more at one of the nation’s premiere plant collections.
The JC Raulston Arboretum’s Children’s Program
serves over 3,500 children a year. This summer, you
can help create and deliver science-based lessons to
homeschoolers, girl scouts, and local families. The
education intern will also work alongside a certified
teacher in our summer camps working with preschool
through middle school campers. Gain experience
while having fun in the gardens this summer!
