Building Community

Volunteers at Sweet Farm are able to meet and work with like-minded people, while having the opportunity to learn about climate issues through sustainable, regenerative agriculture and the amazing lives of farm animals.

Volunteers have the opportunity to make a real difference towards creating a compassionate and sustainable world, while participating in activities that involve tending to our organic farm and caring for a variety of rescued farm animals.
