The Botanic Garden Ambassadors

Volunteers for the Botanic Garden at Oklahoma State University are called TBG Ambassadors. Our TBG Ambassadors have gained a wealth of knowledge and formed lasting friendships with other gardeners with similar interests in horticulture, education and serving their communities. Through their time and energy, the TBG Ambassadors have reinforced the mission and goals of The Botanic Garden at Oklahoma State.

 

Their participation has provided the garden with a valuable resource and without their commitment, we would not be successful expanding The Botanic Garden!

 

 

Why Become a TBG Ambassador?

• Expand one's horticulture knowledge through formal and hands-on education
• Share knowledge and skills with others
• Make new friends and share in fellowship
• Support a valuable community resource which contributes to a higher quality of life for all
