    Become a Community Farmer! Help Grow Fruits and Veggies for Your Community in 2025

    ***We are busy gearing up for the 2025 season, be sure to sign up to get the latest details!***

    Join us in getting your hands dirty for a good cause! The Piedmont Environmental Council’s Community Farm at Roundabout Meadows needs volunteers to help grow and harvest fresh produce for Clarke and Loudoun food pantries in our 2025 season. While you help your community you’ll learn more about the local food system and maybe even pick up a few tips on growing your own fruits and veggies.

    Volunteer opportunities for 2025 will begin in late March/early April and continue throughout the growing season. We have multiple opportunities per week during the peak season (June-September) and offer one Saturday per month. Due to the food pantry’s availability to pick up produce, the majority of time slots are during the week. Volunteer opportunities are announced via email to all volunteers who have signed up.

    Volunteering is great for team-building! We are happy to coordinate School Field Trips, Corporate, and Group (e.g. scouts,clubs,faith-based organizations) volunteer days for groups of fifteen or more.

    All ages are welcome to volunteer, minors under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
