The garden welcomes volunteer docents to lead hour-long group tours through the botanical gardens for schools, civic groups, horticultural clubs, and seniors associations. The tours teach botany and interesting lore surrounding particular specimens in the collection. Tours are usually held on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, between 10:30 am to 2 pm, and on the first Saturday of each month at 1pm.
MEMBG encourages adults with an interest in plant cultivation to become Volunteer Gardeners. This program, comprised of enthusiastic individuals from the local UCLA community and surrounding area, devote at least four hours per week helping to maintain the quality of the collection, and in the process learn many useful aspects of horticulture and botany.
