Work With us: Volunteer at into the wild farm

Volunteering at Into the Wild Farm is a rewarding way to give back, learn new skills, and experience life on a working farm. Whether you're passionate about animal care, farming, or environmental sustainability, there's a place for you here. Our volunteers play a critical role in the day-to-day operations of the farm and sanctuary. 

As a volunteer, you'll have the opportunity to:

  • Care for Rescued Animals: Help feed, clean, and care for our goats, chickens, pig, donkeys, horses and turkeys. Your support ensures that each animal receives the love and attention they deserve.
  • Get Involved in Sustainable Farming: Assist with planting, harvesting, composting, and other farming activities that help us grow healthy, organic food for the farm and community.
  • Maintain the Farm Grounds: Lend a hand with landscaping, repairs, and general upkeep to keep our sanctuary a safe and beautiful place for both animals and visitors.
  • Educate and Inspire Others: Support our educational program by assisting with tours, school groups, events and workshops, helping to spread awareness about farm life, sustainability, and animal care.
