Our volunteers are what makes Fairgate Farm the special community that it is. We gladly accept anyone who is willing to “get their hands dirty” regardless of gardening experience. All ages are welcome, we just ask for children under middle school be accompanied by an adult.
Upon your first visit, we’ll happily show you around the farm so that you can get the lay of the land. On future visits, plan on jumping right into a wide range of farming tasks including watering, weeding, planting, harvesting and more! Please visit are FAQ for more info.
While we are regularly at the Farm Tuesday through Thursday and Saturday mornings during the growing season, occasional schedule conflicts or inclement weather can occur. We encourage you to schedule your volunteer times with us so that we know you’re coming, especially if it’s your first time. To do so, please reach out to Farmer Liz by email at ewimpfheimer@charteroakcommunities.org or call/text her at
