We have a fun opportunity for volunteers and vendors coming up at the C***r Squeeze!

We would love to have some vendors that sell goods that fit with the event like baked goods, jam/honey, antiques, fiber arts, etc. It would also be fun to have some additional food and drink vendors (a coffee cart would be fantastic). If you are interested please reach out! It is just a one day event and the cost to have a space for the day is only $25!

We are also in need of volunteers as it is our biggest event of the year! In addition to our regular stations we have some event specific ones that should be a lot of fun! The link below has all the available volunteer spots we have open still, any help you're willing to give we greatly appreciate.

Hope to see you all there!

Volunteers needed!

We have some fun volunteer opportunities coming up for those interested in getting involved.

☀️ The farm is open every Saturday now through October and we would love to have some volunteers on site to help with tours. On a typical Saturday, usually smaller groups of 2-5 people stop by for a tour. Giving these tours is nice because there are typically no set time limits - you are welcome to take more time at any station as the guests seem interested, and move on whenever they are ready at other stations. Between tours, there is always something to do - assemble toys for the store, tidy up the houses, grounds maintenance. Or you can just enjoy relaxing at the farm.

🎒 We have a school tour of around 100 kids scheduled on August 20th and we could use your help! Whether you have never volunteered or are a volunteer pro we would be happy to have the extra help.

🍎 C***r Squeeze is coming up quick! We need help getting the event set up the day before (9/18) as well as help the day of (9/19). This is a popular event and will be a fun one to volunteer at!

If you are interested in helping out with any of these events please use the link below to sign up. We look forward to seeing you!
