Approx. 15-20 hours per week

What You'll Be Doing:

👩🏼‍🌾 You'll be helping with our Grow – N – Give program. We grow fresh local produce for food banks right here in our local community.

🌻 If that sounds like something you'd love to be part of, we'd love to hear from you!

🐄 June is National Dairy Month and the perfect time to celebrate the independent dairy farmers in our communities! Family-scale dairy farms used to be a common sight in rural America but now operate at alarmingly dwindled rates. Corporate influence on farm policy has led to dairy farmers taking on greater financial risks just to stay afloat. NFFC has long been a proponent of fair prices for dairy farmers - and indeed all farmers - because the people who grow our food deserve thriving livelihoods.

🥛 Follow our page to learn more about the dairy sector and why we need bold policy reforms to save our family dairies! 🧀🍦🧈🍨

🌻 WHY COME TO OPENING DAY? 🌻

Opening Day at the farm is a our way of sharing who we are and what we do with eachother and with our community.
It's about:

Every plant you buy helps support community growing spaces, education programs, and future farm projects right here in Casper. If you believe that access to fresh local food and a sense of connection with your community truly matter...this is a space that will make you smile.
