Join the Community

Volunteer, grow, and share in the harvest with Covenant Gardens.

What is a Farm Friend?

Farm Friends are community volunteers who work alongside us at Covenant Gardens during the growing season. In exchange for your time, you’ll share in the harvest — from garden plants and fresh asparagus to summer veggies and fall produce.

As a Farm Friend, you’ll learn about regenerative agriculture, experience hands-on farming, and help support local, chemical-free food production right here in the Jefferson River Valley.

How it works

Volunteers help with planting, harvesting, greenhouse work, and community events. Whether you’re new to gardening, part of a family looking to learn, or someone passionate about local food, we’ll find a role that fits your schedule. Farm Friends receive early access to produce and enjoy special gatherings throughout the season.
