Volunteer at the Farm

Kindred Ground Farm is proud to welcome people of all ages, abilities, and walks of life to visit and learn about organic farming, fresh produce, and to dig in the dirt!  We are especially eager to have our youngest CSA Members visit us. We strongly believe that children who learn where their food comes from will often grow up to be healthier eaters!

When our youngest farmers visit we are happy to show them around, put them to work, let them play in our dirt pile, and of course sample some of the freshest produce they may have ever tasted by letting them pick a few foods themselves!

If your child is interested in learning more about Kindred Ground Farm and where his or her food comes from, please let us know. We will be glad to show you around. If you and your young children are interested in planting or weeding for a morning or afternoon, we can always use extra hands. For older children we can create a weekly volunteer opportunity. Older children who are able to follow directions, work semi-independently, and who are eager to learn about food growth are welcome to discuss filling a weekly (or more frequent) volunteer slot. This is a great opportunity for homeschoolers that can extend all the way to the end of the season. Children in public and private schools are equally welcome and can end their volunteering when school resumes in the fall or work in the afternoons if they desire.

In the past we have had young adults with developmental challenges work with us as well. We would welcome the opportunity to do this again. If you know of a young adult who is eager to learn and work with us on the farm, please let us know. We will be eager to coordinate with his/her parents or job coach to find the right fit for all of us!

Remember when you join a Community Supported Agriculture farm, you become a member in more than name! We hope to see you soon!
