On Saturday, March 7th we'll be serving up a unique Farm to Table dinner at Sweetwater Organic Community Farm. This dinner is a fundraiser to help support our educational farm programs where kids learn "where their food comes from." We have a variety of tasks we need volunteer support to accomplish throughout the day on March 7th. From set up, food prep, ticket taking, pouring drinks, serving food, break down, and more! Shifts are about two hours each. Please contact Kaitlin Hennessy at 813-887-4066 or programs@sweetwater-organic.org with any questions and to sign up for this fundraiser. We couldn't do it without our amazing community volunteers.
