🌾 Field Fellowship Day
Hosted by On Da Farm LLC
Join us for Field Fellowship Day—a seasonal volunteer experience where community, learning, and land come together. Hosted at an On Da Farm site, this event begins with a brief Garden 101 lesson tailored to the time of year, followed by hands-on garden tasks guided by a local farmer. Participants will have a chance to win On Da Farm merch in our raffle, connect with fellow growers and supporters, and contribute meaningfully to the local food system. Perfect for individuals, families, and groups, this is a beautiful way to learn, serve, and enjoy time with the land. Field Fellowship is more than a volunteer day—it’s a chance to root yourself in the rhythm of the land, learn regenerative practices, and give back through mindful service. Come as you are, ready to grow, connect, and co-create abundance.
