Get down and dirty! Join Snug Harbor for a day of hands-on volunteering at the Heritage Farm. These volunteer days will teach you how a small-scale urban farm operates, and how we support a productive landscape balancing animals, plants, and humans.Volunteers will assist with bed building, bed prep, seeding, weeding and more! Learn about sustainable urban farming and the importance of soil management. We will be outside getting dirty and doing physical work. Wear clothes you do not mind getting dirty and bring a water bottle. Event will happen rain or shine! We welcome youth over 15 years of age. Anyone 14 years and younger must be under the direct supervision of a caregiver. Registration preferred, walkups are encouraged while we still have capacity.
