Support Pioneer Farms by volunteering as a store clerk. Our general store serves not only as a small gift shop but is also where we collect admissions from visitors. This is one of the most important volunteer positions at Pioneer Farms!
We are looking for clerks who can volunteer during our open hours: Thursdays thru Sundays with shifts from 10-1:30 and 1:30-5 each day. You can sign up for a weekly or monthly shift as well as fill in based on your schedule.
Our system is very simple and easy to learn. We provide all necessary training.
Store Clerks are asked to wear period appropriate clothing for the 1800s. But, we are available to help you find an easy and inexpensive costume.

About Jourdan Bachman Pioneer Farm
Location:
10621 Pioneer Farms Dr., Austin, TX 78754, US
Mission Statement
Pioneer farms is a 94-acre living history museum where Texas history during the 1800s is authentically re-created on five fully restored home sites, representing the diverse lifestyles and cultures that were present in Central Texas. Classes and workshops in pioneering skills and trades, more than two dozen special programs for children, a thriving heritage artisans initiative to encourage handmade crafts, and Scout and 4-H programs bolster this unique educational experience. The site features 27 historically significant buildings and hallowed grounds that were once on the routes of both the Camion Real and Chisholm Trail.
Description
The park is managed and staffed primarily by volunteers, the largest operation of its type in the region. Our volunteers help with every aspect of the museum from feeding animals, historical interpretation, agriculture, office management, and events. First opened in 1975 for summer and nature camps, the park has grown gradually with additional programs and historical buildings. We currently have three working farmsteads, a Tonkawa encampment, a historic town square and are still growing.
