Join us as a volunteer at Open Farms! No matter your experience level, we would love your help growing delicious organic produce to nourish our neighbors. Volunteers can expect to take part in all aspects of work on our urban farms. This includes composting, forming beds, seeding crops, planting seedlings, mulching, weeding, and harvesting. Work varies based on the time of year.
Farm shifts are 2 hours long, and locations/times vary each day. Please dress for the weather and wear sturdy footwear. Bring what you need to be comfortable working outdoors (hat, sunscreen, snack.) Bring your own water bottle. We provide clean cloves and tools.
