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!

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 for you! These workdays are open to everyone and are a fantastic opportunity to work alongside others in our community.   

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  

For the month of August and through the fall, we are in need of consistent weekly volunteers on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays anytime between 8:30 – 11:00am. Anyone is welcome! No prior gardening experience is needed; we will teach you what you need to know. There are tasks varying from low to high physical demand. Please sign up at the links below ahead of time to help us with project planning. We would love to have you!   

GROUP Volunteer Opportunities 

We are so thankful for volunteer groups and the work and time they invest! If you’re interested in bringing a group out to volunteer with us, please reach out to volunteers@riseupcommunityfarm.org

Please note that our group opportunities fill up quickly, and we schedule volunteer groups based on the seasonal needs of the farm. We cannot guarantee that a certain date will be available or that we can accommodate your group’s size.
