Date/Times Needed:
We take volunteers late March through early November!
Community farm hours - Tuesdays and Saturdays 4-6 p.m.; Thursdays 9 a.m.-noon. It's always a good idea to chek in before coming to be sure we are not hosting a special event or taking our farm members on a field trip. Thank you!
OR schedule your group to come on a Saturday morning 9 a.m.-noon! We love hosting groups and can incorporate an educational/stewardship talk/tour as part of your volunteer experience.
Our community farm serves local community farm members and also produces food for our summer campers, retreat groups, and local food pantry in order to foster appreciaton for local farms and offer nutritious, made-from-scratch meals for young and old alike. We could use extra help with weeding, planting, and harvesting. We could also use some help with painting, mending fences, and general upkeep.
