Sign up for the 3rd Saturday Volunteer Workday. Spaces can fill up, so please RSVP only if you plan to attend, and if your plans change, email contact@pieranch.org. Consider staying after the volunteer day to join our Barn Dance in the Farmstand at 6pm, get your tickets for the dance, and select the tickets for volunteers to receive a discount.

The volunteer day begins in the Native Garden that Pie Ranch co-created with the Amah Mutsun Land Trust. We will split into two groups and rotate between working in the Native Garden and Pie Ranch's Program Garden. The types of jobs we do on volunteer days depend on what needs to be done at that point in the season. Volunteers help with planting, weeding, harvesting, culling, and mulching. There is also maintenance work to be done—cleaning up areas damaged by the wildfire, removing debris, and sometimes even infrastructure improvement or repair. Most of our volunteer opportunities involve hard but rewarding physical labor on the farm. Most jobs require heavy lifting, squatting, bending, lots of walking, and a full day out in the sun, wind, or other coastal weather.

If you cannot volunteer on the weekends, please consider joining us for our weekly volunteer day on Thursdays from 9am to 12pm by signing up here.
