Farm Volunteer Days - Pie Ranch


*The event has already taken place on this date: Tue, 03/29/2022
Come volunteer with us! Pie Ranch is a nonprofit educational farm focused on cultivating a healthy and just food system from seed to table. Pie Ranch welcomes volunteers onto the farm every week to help with harvests, land restoration, the Farm Fresh Food Relief project and more. Volunteers have been an essential part of our repair and regeneration efforts after the CZU August Lightning Complex fire burned through Pie Ranch in August. We welcome volunteers onto the land Thursdays from 8:30am to 12pm as well as on the third Saturday of the month.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

The type of jobs we do on volunteer days depend on what needs to get done on the farm each season. Volunteers help with planting, weeding, harvests, culling and mulching. There is also maintenance work to be done— cleaning up areas that have been damaged by the wildfire, removing debris, and renovating living and working spaces for staff. The majority of our volunteer opportunities are hard but gratifying physical labor on the farm. Most jobs require heavy lifting, squatting and bending, lots of walking and a full day out in the sun, wind, or other coastal weather.
