Our Village Work Party & Picnic

June 26, 2026 @ 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM

Come help us prepare the farm for a new season of community, play, and learning!

Join us for a relaxed, family-friendly work party as we tend the gardens, refresh outdoor spaces, and prepare for Wild Play Wednesdays and our upcoming Forest & Farm Co-Op. Children are welcome and encouraged to play, help, explore, and simply be part of the experience.
No special skills are needed, and there is no expectation to work the whole time. Come for an hour or stay for the morning. Every helping hand makes a difference.
