Interested in getting involved with CFF? We love our volunteers and sponsors!

Volunteer with us!

There are many different ways to volunteer at Clarkston Family Farm:

Animal Care

We have chickens, bunnies, goats, pigs, mini horses and a donkey that all need food, cleaning, and love on a regular basis.  If you are interested in joining our Animal Care Team, contact our Animal Care Coordinator, Stephanie Hovey, through the link below to get involved!

Gardening

Gardening volunteers contribute to the production of vegetables, herbs, fruits, and flowers to use in our kids programming and sell in our Sunflower Market. Typical tasks include:

  • Planting
  • Watering
  • Harvesting
  • Weeding

Contact our Garden Manager, Claire Schleusener, through the link below to get involved!

Other Opportunities

There are many other ways to volunteer at Clarkston Family Farm:

  • Learning Adventures (school field trips / day camp)
  • Special event help
  • Construction Projects
  • Community Impact Days (Spring and Fall)
  • Fundraising
  • Grant Writing
  • Team, Organization & Community Group Opportunities

For all other opportunities please contact us through the general volunteer form, and we will help you find an opportunity!  We welcome helpers of all ages and abilities (adult supervision is required), and would love to have you join us!

Interested in Supporting the Farm in Other Ways?

With help from our friends in the community, the Clarkston Family Farm will provide a space where kids can be kids again, learning and exploring, helping things grow, cooking and tasting and playing in nature.

Besides a general farm sponsorship, we have a special need for sponsors for our animals.  They bring a lot of joy to kids and adults alike, and we do have a volunteer animal care team in place.   However, keeping our animals healthy costs $500 per month in food, and $5,000 per year for veterinary care.  As a non-profit, this is a huge expense for us.  If you have a special place in your heart for animals, perhaps this is the perfect sponsorship opportunity for you!  Click the link for more information.
