Volunteers are a crucial part of our work growing nourishing food for our neighbors experiencing food insecurity. In 2021, volunteers provided over 2,700 hours of time, planting, weeding, and caring for the land. We are incredibly grateful for our volunteers and would love for you to join the team!

Interested in volunteering with us? Check out the opportunities below!     

Second Saturdays   

Our Second Saturday Workdays are the best way for new volunteers to learn more about our work and see if volunteering with us is the right fit! These workdays are open to the community and are a fantastic opportunity to work alongside others in our community.   

Our Second Saturday Workdays take place from February through November on the second Saturday of each month from 8:30-11:00AM. You can find more information and sign up at riseup.link/secondsaturday    

CONSISTENT VOLUNTEERS  

Rise Up is powered by a crew of amazing & dedicated volunteers who help us with day to day planting, weeding and harvesting. Spring and summer are busy seasons at the farm, and we could use some extra hands on our team! If you are excited at the thought of building community while learning farming skills and have consistent morning availability on Tuesdays-Fridays (whether it’s an hour here or there, or a couple days a week!), please email volunteers@riseupcommunityfarm.org to schedule a time to volunteer!

GROUP Volunteer Opportunities  

We are so thankful for volunteer groups and the work and time they invest! We schedule volunteer groups based on the seasonal needs of the farm and would love for you to reach out if you’re interested in bringing a group out to volunteer with us. Please reach out to volunteers@riseupcommunityfarm.org and we will see if there is a date and project that works well for us both!

Want to stay in the loop?
