Join the Riverside Park Teen Corps
Teen Corps members meet twice a week through the summer to work alongside zone gardeners maintaining horticultural sites and managing woodland areas of Riverside Park. Volunteers who complete 48 hours of service over the summer receive a stipend, making this a rare paid-adjacent option for consistent outdoor service.

“Loved this one — the organizer had everything set up before we arrived and explained exactly what we'd be doing. It ran about 30 minutes long, which caught a few of us off guard, so plan for that. Would definitely come back.”
💡 Bring closed-toe shoes and a water bottle — it gets warm.
