Volunteer Opportunities
WEE Farm welcomes volunteers who want to contribute their time, skills, and expertise to help maintain and improve our farm, gardens, facilities, and educational spaces.
Our volunteer opportunities are based on the operational needs of the farm and do not include animal handling, animal care, feeding, or recreational interaction with our animals.
We are especially seeking individuals with practical skills and experience in:
- Carpentry and construction
- Mechanics and equipment repair
- Gardening and horticulture
- Lawn care and landscaping
- Forestry and arboriculture
- Skilled trades and general maintenance
- Building, fencing, and infrastructure projects
Volunteers should be comfortable with outdoor work and willing to contribute to projects that directly support the farm's operations and mission.
Interested in Spending Time with Our Animals?
WEE Farm frequently receives requests from individuals and groups interested in volunteering as a way to interact with our animals.
While we appreciate this interest, animal interactions and guided farm activities are offered through our fee-based educational programming, not through volunteer opportunities.
These experiences require dedicated staff time, planning, preparation, and supervision to ensure the safety and well-being of both participants and animals.
Program fees help cover these costs and support WEE Farm's continued operation as a nonprofit educational farm.
We welcome inquiries from individuals, families, schools, community organizations, and groups interested in scheduling a structured farm experience.
Thank you for helping us keep WEE Farm a safe, welcoming, and sustainable resource for our community!
