Glasshouse Biome Clean-up

Join us at our Cleveland Botanical Garden campus to do a semi-extreme makeover in our Eleanor Smith Glasshouse biomes. These amazing spaces are packed with exotic plants, trees and animals - and they need a little love to keep them healthy. Biome Clean-up activities include raking leaves and removing debris from beds, wiping down vents, helping repair screens and more. No prior experience necessary!This special ALL PLAY Day at HF&G works for individuals ages 14-25, small groups, and families with children ages 8 and up! ALL PLAY Days at Holden Forests & Gardens are when we host one-time volunteer activities that are open to anyone, whether you are an active volunteer with us or not! It’s an opportunity to help the environment, make new friends, try out volunteering for us and hopefully, have a little fun!
