Workshares

We work hard and get dirty, but we have a friendly crew and always have a good time on harvest days. Workshares volunteer on the farm for half a day (8 a.m. to 1 p.m.) in exchange for a share of veggies. JBG accepts workshares on Tuesday, Wednesday or Friday, our three main harvest and packing days.

If you're interested in worksharing, please email us in advance and let us know when you'd like to help. Because of high demand, it's essential to RSVP at least 48 hours before you want to come out to the farm. (It's best to contact us a week in advance to be ensured a spot.) You must receive confirmation prior to coming to JBG.

Bringing water is a must. We recommend you wear long sleeves and pants for protection as well as sturdy shoes. Also consider bringing sunscreen, a large-brimmed hat, work gloves and snacks. Volunteer work typically consists of a variety of tasks including harvesting, washing and packing vegetables, and field work as needed.

Given the challenging nature of farm work, we ask that you do not bring children under the age of 12. Anyone between the ages of 12 and 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
