Friends of Green Thumb Farm
Thank you!
Farm Friends
We invite you to support our mission and be a part of a change for good.
Volunteer Work
Friends of the farm who volunteer their time and energy to work at the farm, develop skills to grow organic food, and are invited to harvest and take home at the end of each working bee session some of the amazing produce they are helping to grow!
During working bees, volunteers can work planting, harvesting, weeding, composting, caring for worm farms, as well as executing nursery and farmer markets related duties, depending on their skills, availability and interest.
Volunteers are expected to attend at least 2 working bee sessions per month. Sessions happen on:
- Tuesdays 09am to 12pm (hands on at the farm).
- Wednesdays 09am to 12 pm (hands on at the farm).
- Saturdays 06am to 09am (hands on at the farm or Farmgate Markets).
- Saturdays 09am to 12pm (hands on at the farm or Farmgate Markets).
Are you interested in volunteering with us? Just send us a message and we will reach out to you!
Financial Sponsorship
With an annual contribution, you will help to cover our operational costs, including power, insurance, and farming equipment which we rely on to keep Green Thumb Farm open to the community.
