Getting your hands dirty helping to grow food is about as direct and rewarding as it gets. Join us on Friday, September 26th for an outdoors, in-person service-learning experience at San Francisco’s largest nonprofit food production site, Alemany Farm!
WHAT TO EXPECT:
We ask that volunteers come on-time, at the start of the shift. All volunteers will be required to sign a liability waiver upon arrival, as we will work mostly on SF Rec & Parks land.
The day will start off with an introduction to the farm team and a tour of the farm! After the tour, the Alemany Farm team will lead us through various projects, such as weeding, planting, bed preparation, fruit tree work, compost making, mulching, pathway maintenance, greenhouse work, and more.
WHAT TO BRING:
Face mask, optional
Water Bottle
Hat
Sturdy Shoes
Jacket with layered clothing underneath
Sunscreen
Snacks
A bag (to bring home some produce)
**Travel light! The farm is an open public space and we have no secure storage for bags. Leave valuables at home and be mindful of your personal belongings, as you would in any park setting.
FAACTS will provide a light lunch and water to refill your water bottles.
