We are looking for volunteers to help with harvest and farm maintenance during the busy upcoming season! 

The shifts will be on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday mornings from 9am-12pm. Wednesdays are dedicated to harvesting produce and preparing for the Main Street Farmer's Market. 

Spring Projects include:

  • MAIN PROJECT: Preparing the fields for Spring Planting
  • Soil prep, composting, irrigation, and bed prep
  • Planting and transplanting
  • Weeding and mulching
  • Plant care and pest management
  • Spring harvesting
  • Seed starting and germination
  • Beautifying the farm and Community garden spaces
  • Spring cleaning and organizing tools

Volunteers should bring a water bottle and wear closed toed shoes and long pants. Activity level is moderate to high. Some bending, squatting, lifting included in all tasks. Activities include, but are not limited to, field prep, planting, plant care, property maintenance, harvesting, weeding and general landscaping. 

There are some options for folks with a little bit more limited mobility or may need some shady options (like washing and produce packing). We are happy to make accommodations with a little heads-up. Please reach out to ckey@crabtreefarms.org for more info.

We love hosting individuals and families on the farm! Farming and gardening is an enriching experience for all ages.

For ALL volunteers under 12 years of age, we require ONE (1) parent/guardian/chaperone PER child. We require a paper waiver form for the child to be filled out by a parent or legal guardian and submitted to ckey@crabtreefarms.org no later than 24 hours prior to the event. Parents/guardians/chaperones will fill out the 18+ electronic waiver form on this website. We require at least 24-hours notice before young children are expected on the property, to give us time to prepare a suitable task, so please email ckey@crabtreefarms.org with the names and ages of each child who will be accompanying you. 

We can host volunteers 12-16 provided all children in a family are accompanied by one (1) parent/guardian/chaperone per family. We require a paper waiver form OR the Under 18 Online Waiver to be filled out by a parent or legal guardian and submitted to ckey@crabtreefarms.org no later than 24 hours prior to the event. You do not need to notify us otherwise.

We can host volunteers 16 and up without a chaperone, however anyone under 18 must have a parent or guardian sign a waiver form and submit it to ckey@crabtreefarms.org no later than 24 hours prior to the event. You do not need to notify us otherwise.
