Volunteer weekly on an Organic Farm in exchange for veggies!

411 Sheldon Road, Petersham MA

Description

One of the essential constituencies of our workforce at Many Hands Organic Farm is our working shareholders. For 4 hours of work during the 22 week CSA summer season, the 5 week fall CSA season, and throughout the winter if you desire (mornings 8-noon), volunteers receive as barter one large share of produce during the CSA season. Come for breakfast at 7:00 and stay for lunch. It is a good opportunity for someone interested in learning the CSA process from a hands-on perspective (there are some animal chores too) and to become a part of our farm community. Vacations and time off are encouraged. We are always looking for more working shareholders to help us with the very large CSA harvest, and working shareholders become beloved members of our staff. We also take one time individual and group volunteers all weekdays during the growing season, and a little more irregularly during the winter. Volunteers should plan to work quickly, take direction well, and enjoy all sorts of weather (much of which is not considered ideal). Then plan to enjoy lunch with us. Volunteering at the farm is a great way to understand both the vegetable and animal aspects of our farm. Check out our website here for more information: https://mhof.net/volunteer-at-mhof/
