Volunteer @ NSCF

You can get involved with our vibrant Farm community by becoming a volunteer. Farming, nursery, construction and kitchen volunteers are welcome. We also occasionally need people with professional or trade skills (even off-site help, if you can’t get to the farm): building, electrical, plumbing, welding, accounting, legal, to name a few.
