Pomeroy Farm is seeking volunteers to help build and set up scenes for our annual Pumpkin Lane event! No experience required, but an enthusiasm for farm life and a willingness to get dirty are encouraged! Pomeroy Living History Farm is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization committed to preserving and maintaining history, providing educational opportunities, and sharing farm life - past and present - with the community. Pomeroy Farm is a nationally registered historic site and farm museum located in Yacolt, WA. Since being settled in 1910 by E.C. Pomeroy the farm has been continually inhabited and run by his descendants. We gained our nonprofit status in 1989 and have since worked to preserve the farm and a way of life that is becoming more and more distant. Our volunteers are an integral piece of our success and we rely on them heavily to carry out our community events. Our public events vary throughout the year, and include fall and spring school programs, an annual Country Life Fair, and a pumpkin patch in October. If you'd like to get involved, we'd love to hear from you!

Are you looking for a fun and unique way to connect with young people in your community or perhaps fulfill a school credit? Do you have a passion for history, farm life, or a combination of the two? This opportunity may be for you! Between our spring and fall programs we introduce thousands of school children to farm life every year, and we need volunteer tour guides to help us host and ensure our guests have an enjoyable and unforgettable experience here. Our historic spring program focuses on pre-electric farm life and the roles of children on a farm, including work and play. Kids have the opportunity to help churn butter, wash clothes, and meet our friendly farm animals. The spring program entails dressing in 1920's era clothing. It runs through the month of May, on weekdays (flexible schedule). In the fall, our field trips are geared toward younger children and highlight a more modern look at farming. Kids enjoy a hayride to our pumpkin patch, games, and an introduction to our various farm animals. The fall program runs through the month of October, on weekdays (flexible schedule). Both group leaders and tractor drivers are needed! If any of this sounds intriguing to you, please get in touch with us - we'd love to tell you more about this fun opportunity!
