Docents

Docent guides lead scheduled groups on Garden tours showcasing plant collections, conservation work and current exhibitions. Tours are split into groups of 8-12 people, with each docent leading a group around the Garden for about an hour.

Docents must complete a training course which takes place one weekday morning a week for five weeks. Contact the volunteer manager at jtodd@atlantabotanicalgarden.org or 404.591.1548 to register for training.

Adult tour training will take place in the summer. The 2012 Children's tour training has concluded and will be offered again in early 2013.
