Join us in getting your hands dirty for a good cause!

PEC’s Community Farm at Roundabout Meadows connects residents to Loudoun’s vital agricultural history while providing locally-grown fruits and vegetables for its food-insecure population today.

Since its inaugural season in 2019, the Community Farm has donated 100% of its produce to area food pantries, totaling over 180,000 pounds.

Corporate volunteering at the Community Farm is an excellent way for your team to strengthen internal partnerships while making a meaningful impact on the community.

Volunteers will work in groups, bonding with their coworkers over shared tasks on our beautiful farm. Our farm staff guides volunteers through the day’s tasks which often include planting and harvesting fruits and vegetables and caring for our orchard, berry patch and native plant gardens.

We believe that taking team-building outside of the office and into nature creates opportunities for fresh perspectives and inspires individuals to make positive changes in their communities.

We hope our volunteers leave the farm feeling more connected to their environment, each other, and inspired to tell their friends and family about the impact they made at the Community Farm at Roundabout Meadows!

About Piedmont Environmental Council

Location:

45 Horner Street, Warrenton, VA 20188, US

Mission Statement

Protect and restore the lands and waters of the Virginia Piedmont, while building stronger, more sustainable communities.

Description

The Piedmont Environmental Council is a locally based, donor-supported 501(c)(3) nonprofit and an accredited land trust. We strive to make the Virginia Piedmont a model and leader on conservation, restoration, smart growth and climate action. At the core of our approach is a focus on educating, engaging and empowering people to effect positive change in their communities. Our nine-county region spans from Clarke and Loudoun counties in the north to Charlottesville and Albemarle in the south.

We envision a Virginia Piedmont where people act on a belief that conservation is essential to creating and maintaining vibrant, healthy communities. Our region is characterized by connected natural and cultural landscapes, thriving villages, towns and cities, clean rivers and streams, and working farms and forests. It’s a beautiful place where residents across all walks of life participate in decisions about its future.
