Are you looking to get your hands dirty and work outside? If so, we need you!

The Duke Lemur Center is looking for volunteers to help care for the Duke Lemur Center vegetable garden. The garden and various fruiting plants provide a supplemental organic food source for our resident lemurs. Garden duties include planting, weeding, watering, harvesting, composting, and occasional hard labor of working the soil. No gardening experience necessary, but is always helpful. A 2-4 hour commitment per week is required. As fruits and vegetables are harvested, volunteers are welcome to extend their time at the DLC and watch the lemurs enjoy their home grown food!
