The herbarium (museum of preserved plants) needs your help taking high resolution images of our plant specimens! Teams of volunteers and staff will work together to perform the first half of our imaging protocol, which involves carefully handling specimens, applying a barcode, and updating our specimen database. Volunteers will have fun, learn about herbaria and preserved plant specimens, and help the Garden make images available to researchers around the world!
