About this Event
Work alongside knowledgeable 21 Acres staff on a variety of seasonal restoration and farm projects that build soil health and climate resilience. Your help supports local food systems by increasing farm productivity; building habitat for animals, birds, and insects; decreasing stormwater runoff; and storing carbon.
Depending on the time of year, volunteers can expect to learn about vernal wetlands, crop planting and harvesting, local pollinator species, cover crops, bioswales, hugelkultur, noxious weeds, and more - all while engaging in collaborative hands-on activities.
No prior farm experience required. All tools provided.
Be prepared for your visit to the farm:
- Please always wear closed-toe shoes for your safety.
- Raincoats and rubber boots are advised on rainy days.
- Remember to check the weather and dress accordingly.
- Wear loose-fitting comfortable layers that you don’t mind getting dirty.
- Long sleeves and long pants are recommended.
- Bring a reusable water bottle and snacks to stay fueled and hydrated!

The 21 Acres farm is not ADA accessible. The roads are unpaved, and the ground can be uneven. Our LEED-certified education center is ADA accessible. There is an elevator in the building that goes to the second-floor restrooms. While our restrooms are not gender-neutral, we invite all guests to use the restroom that aligns with their identity.
