One of the things I like to stress to people about how this show goes and how it is put on is that without the help of the landscape volunteers, this show would not happen. There are two people involved in this department, and without the volunteers, we wouldn't be able to do half of the things that are done both inside and out in the gardens. One of the things I'd like everyone to take away from this show is that volunteers are needed at all times for this department because of the immense amount of work that goes on. This show alone, when the show is on for the two or three weeks that we run it, my volunteers are putting in anywhere from eight hundred to a thousand hours of help. Without their help, this doesn't happen. I always put out a big shout to them, because without them, the museum would not be the way it is. The grounds would not be as beautiful as they are, and this show would definitely not happen.\n\nFor those of you interested, we are always looking for new volunteers to help both with the show, and with the gardens. Please visit our website, eastman.org to find out all the fun details about volunteering in the gardens. If you're here for the show, stop by our sales area where you'll find some lovely plants to take home with you, a little bit of the Dutch Connection to take with you. You may also check out with my volunteers to find out what it is to volunteer. Forms are available. More information that was available in the sales area. I want to thank you for coming, and enjoy the flowers. Enjoy the sense and smells of spring.
