About this event

Charity & Causes • Environment

Want time in a peaceful, outdoor space? Are you hoping to learn more about gardening? Would you like to help grow food for the neighbors? Join us!

Volunteers will plant, weed, water, trellis, mulch, and help with other garden tasks.

Adults of all skill levels are welcome. Kids under 16 should be accompanied by an adult.

Volunteers may take home some of the products that we grow.

If you prefer to join us for a shorter window of time to volunteer, please just let us know.

If you would like to bring a large group to volunteer, please note we make those arrangements for groups that offer financial support.

Frequently asked questions

Will we work in the rain?

Some days we work in the greenhouse, which is rain or shine. Reach out to us before you come if the weather is bad and we can let you know if we still need help.

Do I need to have gardening experience?

No! We welcome people with all levels of experience in the garden. We're happy to show you what to do.

Can I bring my kids?

Yes! You can bring kids of any age, as long as you work with them.

What should I bring?

Please bring a water bottle. We also recommend sunscreen and any snacks you might want while you're here. We have spare work gloves, but if you have a pair you like that fits you, you should bring them.

What should I wear?

Wear clothes that can get dirty and allow you to feel comfortable in the weather of the day. For example, you might want a jacket.

Is there a bathroom? Or someplace to eat?

Yes! THEARC Farm is located beside several buildings open to the public that have clean restrooms, a water fountain, and a cafe where you can purchase food and drinks.
