“Volunteers Make the Farm Go ‘Round”! We depend on them immensely - without their support, we wouldn’t be able to proceed with our non-profit projects.
How can you volunteer?
-In the greenhouse from March 15 - June 15: sowing seeds, planting plugs, transplanting, making soil, organizing plant displays, deadheading, and loading trucks.
-Working in the fields from April 30 - October 30. Learn first hands how to grow sustainable, organic vegetables employing permaculture, companion planting, mulching, and bed making methods.
-Be a workshare member. We have 12 during the year, work forty (hours) and get 140 ($ of produce).
-Join us on potato planting day - the last Sat. of April.
-Join us on Permaculture day in May or our Weed ‘n Feed Day in July.
Our goal is to have all our volunteers go away saying:
“I can do this - I can have a garden”.
