About this event

White Harvest Farms volunteer activities involve working hand in hand with staff to support operations and maintenance of the farm. WHF staff explain volunteer activities and work with you to learn about regenerative farming.

Volunteer tasks are physical - planting, weeding, bed prep, mulching, harvesting, washing produce, bagging and labeling produce. Actions like digging, raking, bending, twisting, using a wheelbarrow, and lifting may feel like a full-body workout! If you have any physical or health limitations we can accommodate you.

Wednesday - planting, weeding, seeding

Friday - harvest, planting, seeding

Saturday - weeding, bed prep

**for groups larger than 5 please email whiteharvestfarms@clarawhitemission.org**

WHAT TO WEAR? Clothes for outdoor work that they do not mind getting dirty. We recommend closed-toe shoes, pants, breathable long-sleeve shirts, and a hat. Also consider bringing sunscreen, bug spray, and gardening gloves. We provide drinking water but please bring a water bottle that you can refill. We drink a lot of water at WHF!

DON'T GET LOST! Look for the white fence surrounding the farm and the high tunnel on the farm site. If you are heading North on Moncrief, the farm is just after you cross the railroad tracks on the left-hand side of the road. If you are driving south on Moncrief, the farm is just after you pass Moncrief Creek on the right-hand side of the road. Once you arrive, turn right after you pull through the gate to park in front of the metal Quonset Hut. Staff are stationed behind the metal building so walk down the sidewalk on the northside of the building to find WHF staff and sign in.

At WHF we want to be socially responsible and provide safety tips for anyone concerned about their health. If you have symptoms of Covid19 or have any other illness please reschedule for another day.

Thank you so much for being a part of White Harvest Farms!
