Farm Work Days

We will post scheduled Farm Work Days on our calendar where volunteers can join us for hands-on projects and animal care. However, farm work days don’t have to wait for a scheduled event—you or your group can plan a day to come out and help whenever it works best for you! Just reach out to us, and we’ll coordinate the details
