Spend a morning on QBG Farm and learn how composted food scraps nourish the soil to grow healthy food in NYC. Tasks will vary by day, but may include weeding, harvesting, planting, and composting activities.

Please read through the list below for important details about the workdays:

– You must be at least 16 years of age to volunteer alone. Volunteers under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

– Weekday volunteer days are Wednesdays from 9am-12pm.

– Weekend volunteer days are the last Saturday of the month from 9am-12pm.

– You must register at least 48 hours before each event (for Wednesdays, by 9am Monday; for Saturdays, by 9am Thursday).

– Space is limited. You will receive a confirmation email before each workday you sign up to attend. Please let us know if you cannot attend a workday so someone else may take your spot.

– You may sign up for as many or as few shifts as you would like. The form can be submitted multiple times. For example, if you want to sign up for one month at a time, you can return and fill out this form each month.
