Our volunteer program is flexible to allow for varied interests and schedules. Some volunteers want to learn about gardening, some want to work at special events; we have friends who volunteer occasionally while others every Thursday or only during the holiday season. Please apply to be a volunteer and we'll contact you when we have a project that will interest you.

Groups interested in volunteering should complete and submit the online Group Visit form.

Current Volunteer Opportunities

On the Farm

Scheduled volunteer activities occur every Thursday & Friday from 10 am - 2 PM. Visit, meet the crew, learn more about the farm, and join in that day's activities. Make sure to wear sunscreen, layers of clothes, closed-toe shoes and bring a water bottle.

Natural Bridges is a working farm. Projects include all types of activities:

• Simple weeding
• Harvest: strawberries, CSA crops, lavender and other flowers for drying
• Planting new crops in early spring
• Flower harvest and making CSA bouquets
• Clearing out beds for new crops
• Helping out in our farm kitchen

Projects are weather dependent and defined by the day's priorities. We often can't tell you in advance exactly what project you'll be working on. Apply Now
