What to Expect
At the farm pavilion, volunteers receive an introduction to Gaining Ground and our hunger-relief role.
Our farmers provide an overview of what’s going on at the farm and the tasks they’ve lined up, based on the skills and abilities of that day’s volunteers.
Volunteers work alongside our staff — planting, mulching, cultivating, harvesting, washing.
At the end of your visit, a farmer returns with you to the pavilion to share observations and experiences.
