Queens County Farm Museum
Every Tuesday and Sunday April - October, between 10am and 4pm, QCFM hosts regular volunteer days. Individual volunteers can simply show up on these days, between these hours, and assist farmers with various tasks. Volunteers can stay the whole day, or just a few hours. All volunteers must be 16 and older. Volunteers should wear clothes they don't mind getting dirty, and bring a lunch and insect repellent if planning on staying most of the day. There is no need to sign up or apply before volunteering. First time volunteers, should stop by the welcome center (first building on your left as you enter), and an employee there will point you in the right direction. Groups must schedule volunteer days in advance. (posted 5.21.12)
