Delta Farmland & Wildlife Trust, a non-profit based out of Delta, is hosting their 12th annual “Day at the Farm” agricultural awareness community event in partnership with Ellis Farms. The event takes place at the Westham Island Herb Farm in Delta, on Saturday, September 9th. The Trust is seeking enthusiastic student volunteers to assist in delivering this popular educational event. Volunteer tasks may include: helping families dig their own potatoes, supervising livestock shows, collecting donations at the gates, or helping with kids activities. In return, volunteers will receive:
-FREE lunch from local food trucks (including farmer Susan Ellis’ famous cookies)
-an opportunity to meet and network with agriculture commodity groups/representatives
-a day spent promoting ag-awareness on a real working farm on scenic Westham Island!
Volunteer hours: 9am – 4pm.
