“My passion for the Garden began in fall of 2005, when I joined as a Volunteer Explainer in the Everett Children\u2019s Adventure Garden. I came to understand that learning wasn\u2019t a practice bound to a physical classroom, but one that flourished in many forms. I was grateful for the work that I did educating children and developing plant science-based programming. In the 14 years since, my responsibilities here have grown, and I\u2019ve grown with them, finding a voice, vision, and an understanding of NYBG\u2019s role as a living museum. I\u2019ve also come to feel accountable to the community of educators, volunteers, staff, and visitors who think of this place as a second home.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
