    Description

    Construction  & Infrastructure Volunteer

    Construction & Infrastructure Volunteer

    Role Overview: The Construction & Infrastructure Volunteer will be a crucial part of our team, helping to build and improve key structures across the farm. This hands-on role is perfect for someone with a passion for building, a knack for problem-solving, and a desire to see a project from start to finish.

    Key Responsibilities:

    • Treehouse Construction: Install windows and doors, build a loft bed, and paint the entire treehouse.

    • Site Preparation: Help dig a trench along a fence line

    • Infrastructure: Assist in building a new adobe structure and a 10x12 shed for storage and rainy days.

    • Water Systems: Install an irrigation system to support our gardens and new plantings.

    • Farm Access & Safety: Construct a privacy gate, build stairs for easy access to and from the animal enclosure, and install stairs on the main trail.

    • Recreational Areas: Assemble and hang a tire swing and a zipline, and build a floating bridge for the creek.

    Time Commitment: This is an as-needed, project-based role. We'll coordinate with you on specific tasks and time commitments that fit your schedule.

    Skills & Qualifications: We are looking for individuals with experience in carpentry, general construction, or a strong willingness to learn. Your skills and willingness to serve are more valuable than any prior experience.
