Help us prepare the ranch for spring!

We are still cleaning up debris from Helene and beautifying the farm, we need your help cleaning up our creeks and removing litter.

We also need help getting ready for spring planting and planning our space as we evolve into a permaculture demonstration site.

After a few hours of work, we will share a potluck lunch. And do tours and answer questions about the ranch.

All are welcome, no experience is necessary!

If you are able to bring a dish to pass that is great but if not, we still want you to come and join us!

Children are welcome, please leave your dogs at home
