Volunteer

Back by popular demand!  (and need)

Volunteering on the farms is open to all members.  Our greatest need for help is on harvest days; Tuesdays, Thursday afternoons and Fridays.  We may need help on other days of the week for special projects, which will be announced via the newsletter, at pick-up locations or through the CSA listserve.  Volunteers can also help us at farmers markets and distribution sites. 

All volunteering must be pre-arranged with the farmer at least 2 days in advance, so we know how much help to expect.  

        

Contact	Farm	Phone
Ted	Greenbranch Farm	(443) 783-3495
Jay	Provident Farm	(410) 873-2942
Craig	Sunrise Farm	(410) 651-1882

 

At this point, these are the farms that will be growing crops for us.  As the season progresses, there may be other farms participating.

There will be a sign-up sheet at each farm.  You must log your hours each time you volunteer.
You will be credited at the rate of $3.00 per hour.  We cannot compensate volunteers beyond the value of a share (192 hours).

At the end of the season, you can choose how to apply your credit:

• Receive a refund for credited hours.
• Apply any portion or all of your credited hours to the Medora Harvest Fund. (Tax deductible)
• Apply any portion or all of your credited hours to a no-interest loan fund to assist farmers with the purchase of needed equipment.
• Apply any portion of your credited hours to an educational development fund.  This fund will help cover the cost of sending our farmers to conferences, workshops, and field days or for bringing experts here.
