Register below, and sign up here to be on the weekly Volunteer Brigade email, to receive info on the weekly project and logistics.
- Work hours are flexible, and would be based on a specific event/activity. We may need lots of hands for a particular farm task, such as removing ground lining, staking tomatoes, end-of-season clean up, or even parking lot traffic control for a Farm to Dinner event.
