Howdy!
Join Farms to Grow, Inc for the "Fresno - Farm Field Project" outdoor experience on Saturdays, 7:00am - 11:30 pm. If you are looking for a way to make an impact and learn farming traditions from an elder, this is the perfect volunteer opportunity for you.
You will be assisting an experienced farmer who recently secured a large contract for his produce, after years of facing numerous obstacles and discrimination. This is a unique opportunity to learn and support an incredibly deserving and knowledgeable farmer.If you are skilled in carpentry, mechanics or electrician we can sure use you help!
