It's planting time, and the Volunteer Farm needs YOU!

 

The Volunteer Farm exists to provide food for the hungry in the 25 counties and nine cities of Virginia we serve. Within a couple of weeks, the Farm will start planting 10 acres of potatoes.  It is hoped that the Farm will be able to produce more food this year for the growing number of people receiving food through the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank.  We cannot fulfill this goal without your help!

We need at least 200 volunteers through the month of March to assist with the planting of the potatoes, so we urge you to quickly determine if you would be able to schedule a visit to the Farm in the next couple of weeks.  If you would like to help, please sign up on our web site at www.VolunteerFarm.org.  The "Calendar" shows the anticipated work for each day, the number of volunteers needed, and the number already signed up. We hope that you will join with us in the ongoing work of the Volunteer Farm.
