General volunteer duties include:
- Fieldwork (soil prep, planting, cultivation, harvesting)
- Processing (washing, packing, delivery)
- Working on farm maintenance and infrastructure projects
- Distributing produce to local grocery stores
- Selling produce at the farm stand on-site
Volunteers must be able to lift 25 lbs. and be comfortable working outdoors for several hours at a time. Weekday availability is preferred, but some weekend shifts are also available. Lunch will be provided.
