Help in the Rose Garden

Join a dedicated group of volunteers who lovingly care for the Jasper Crane Rose Garden in Brandywine Park year-round. No experience is necessary. Just bring your gloves and an interest in gardening.

Restore Natural Habitat

Our Native Habitat volunteer team is returning areas of Brandywine Park to its native landscape. They remove invasive plants and replace them with native species to attract wildlife to the area.

Help Present Events

Event volunteers help host our Summer Concert Series, Foodie Fridays, Delaware Brew Story and quarterly members programs. They have fun while ensuring events run smoothly for everyone!

Plan our Annual Fundraiser

Each year, FOWP hosts a cocktail party in the Jasper Crane Rose Garden. It's our premier fundraiser. A volunteer committee plans and hosts the party, one of the most unique and anticipated events of the season.
