Wyckoff Farm Earth Day Service Day

April 22, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 2:00 pm

Free
Calling all volunteers!

Join the Wyckoff House Museum for a special Earth Day Farm Volunteering Day! Volunteering will take place from 11AM-2PM for processing food scraps and compost plus general spring garden clean up.

We will provide tools, hand sanitizer, and masks for those who need them. Upon arrival we will review important tool safety information. We recommend that volunteers dress with layers in clothing suitable for outdoor work, durable boots or sneakers, bring a refillable water bottle, and snacks.

Planning your visit:

  • Prepare to get dirty! Dress for the mess by wearing proper outdoor work attire (hat, warm layers, rain gear, gardening gloves, closed-toed shoes, etc.).
  • Bring a water bottle. We will have a water refilling station available.
  • Bring snacks/lunch with you (there are limited food options in the area).
  • Tasks are often physically strenuous, and can include weeding, mulching, turning compost, or harvesting, depending on the needs of the farm that day.
  • We welcome volunteers ages 13 & older.
  • Bicycle rack available on-site.
  • We recommend using the restroom before your arrival. There is one port-o-san on the property.
