Individual and Group Volunteering


 

Volunteering gives community members the opportunity to work alongside our farmers and gain valuable skills related to growing food in a community setting.

Volunteers—be they experienced gardeners or those looking to learn more about farming and SCF programs—are encouraged to attend. All ages are welcome!

Group Volunteering

Groups from schools, summer camps, and offices are always welcome at Sprout City Farms. Spending a morning working and learning together offers valuable team building experience while making a difference in the community. We can typically accommodate group sizes of up to 25 people for 2-3 hours for a suggested donation of $10/person. 

To request and schedule a group volunteer event, please fill out a request for the farm you would like to visit.
