The grounds of Tovrea Castle are a large "Cacti Garden." As a Garden Volunteer, you will be weeding, removing dead or old plants and/or cacti and you may get a chance to plant new cacti too. It can be labor intensive at times, and since you are working around cactus, everyone needs to be aware of their surroundings. You will need to make sure you pace yourself and drink plenty of water. Grounds Volunteer Requirements: 1) Footwear - work boots/shoes, or a heavy-duty tennis shoe with thick rubber only; no flip flops, sandals, or thin shoes of any kind whatsoever. 2) Sign in at the beginning of your day, sign-out before you leave (see Team Leader) 3) Bring your own weeding tools, gloves, or any other personal tools (Tovrea has a few extra tools in case, but it’s better to have your own), wear a hat, sun glasses and wear sun protection. 4) Bring your own drinking water. There is no potable water on the property. 5) Clothing - it’s a good idea to wear long sleeve shirts and/pants. But if you don’t, just be careful around the cactus as to not poke yourself. 6) No children under 12, age 13 -17 must be accompanied by an adult.Age Minimum (with Adult): 13+, Minimum Age:18+, Maximum Age:100
