Grow with Us at Crabtree Farms
Step into a world of green-thumb camaraderie and hands-on learning with Crabtree Farms' Greenhouse volunteer program! Together, we’re cultivating the future of sustainable agriculture—one seedling at a time.
As a volunteer, you’ll immerse yourself in the dynamic rhythms of our greenhouse, gaining practical experience alongside passionate gardening enthusiasts. Whether you’re a seasoned Master Gardener or just starting your cultivation journey, there’s a place for you in our thriving community.
Volunteer Tasks Include:
- Preparing for the seasonal plant sale: seeding annual veggies and repotting
- Making potting soil
- Caring for perennials
- Beautifying the plant sale area
- Supporting propagation efforts
- Tending to perennial garden spaces
Accessible to All: We warmly welcome volunteers of all abilities. If you require accommodations, please let us know in advance so we can design a project that keeps you involved with the team. Prefer quieter, individualized projects? We have options for you too—come enjoy the therapeutic benefits of working with plants!
From planting and pruning to propagating and harvesting, each moment in the greenhouse offers opportunities to grow your horticultural knowledge and deepen your connection with nature. Learn from and collaborate with like-minded individuals, sharing tips, tricks, and garden tales along the way.
At Crabtree Farms, the true harvest of volunteering isn’t just in the crops—it’s in the friendships forged, the skills honed, and the vibrant community built together. Join us as we sow the seeds of change and nurture a flourishing future.
