About this Event

Volunteers will get to participate in all aspects of crop cultivation on our small-scale, diversified, organic garden. We practice regenerative farming practices, including season extension, integrated pest management, and reduced tillage or "no till" methods. Volunteers get to work alongside our small farm crew, and we try to make sure all volunteers get to take home a sample of farm produce. Be sure to wear clothing and shoes that you can get dirty, and dress for the weather as most activities take place outdoors! (Events are canceled in cases of extreme weather only, if it is rainy or cold, there is still plenty of work to do inside our greenhouses or sorting seeds, etc. inside the Food Lab). Both UVA students and community members alike are invited to garden with us, all ages are welcome, but we ask that children under the age of 18 be accompanied by an adult.
