Volunteer Days

Join us (each season) to plant fall and spring annuals in A Woman’s Garden. Our mornings typically include a private garden update—often led by Dave Forehand, VP of Gardens—highlighting progress in the Pecan Parterre and the Burgess Serenity Garden.

How to Volunteer

Please contact Debbie Myres to participate in either volunteer day:
Phone: 214-727-1625 | Email: [email protected]

When you reach out, include your name, cell number, email, and your T-shirt size (S/M/L/XL) if you need a Women’s Council green shirt.

What to Wear & Bring
  • Dress for planting and wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes
  • Bring garden gloves
  • Long pants are recommended (we’ll be kneeling while planting)
  • Women’s Council green T-shirt provided if needed

Post-Shift Tradition

After each Volunteer Day shift, we enjoyed (or will enjoy) an optional Dutch-treat lunch on the Café DeGolyer Terrace—a lovely opportunity to visit with fellow volunteers.
