Get Involved at Hidden Pastures
Volunteer Farm Hours
Work hard. Learn. Serve. Be part of the farm.
Volunteer Farm Hours give community members an opportunity to directly support Hidden Pastures through meaningful hands-on farm work. Volunteers may assist with animal care, property maintenance, gardening, organization, special projects, program preparation, and event preparation. These are active working sessions. Volunteers should expect physical outdoor work and changing farm conditions. Animal interaction may naturally occur while completing responsibilities, but volunteering is not designed primarily as recreational animal time.
