"For me, looking forward to going to the farm is what gets me through the day. Every time I come, I enjoy working with my hands, because it lets me process and slow down, and makes me feel so peaceful after. The community is so great and from the moment you get there, everyone is so welcoming. I am so thankful to be a part of it because it is just so wholesome. There is simply no room for bad vibes!" 

- Elena, Teen Volunteer

FIELD TRIPS for SCHOOLS  

August through November and March through May, classes of 30 or fewer are welcome to experience a hands-on, relaxing retreat with their students. The following stations are available for customized field trips: horticulture/herbs, goat experience, bird experience, art, yoga/movement, and horse interactions.  Field Trips are led  by credentialed teacher and former master gardener Linda Haley.  Field trips are best for grades 1-6 since we are not a petting zoo, but a working care farm. Suggested donation depends upon which facilitators are needed (from 55/hour to 100/hour). Scholarships are available!

ADULT and TEEN VOLUNTEER PROGRAM

Reliable and hardworking adults and teens are welcome to volunteer in our volunteer program, coming weekly to feed and water animals, clean enclosures and do farm chores.  Garden volunteers are always welcome during spring, summer and fall to help maintain the raised garden beds.

GROUP VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNIES

The Rotary Club, Girls Scouts, various businesses in the valley and others come to do one day work projects, such as cleaning out goat stalls, chicken coops, organizing the tool areas, greenhouse or other areas, building things, helping on hay days, or weeding in the garden.  Groups under 25 people are welcome to contact Linda@warmspringscarefarm.org for details.

4H Club

Bunnies, chickens and ducks will be the focus of the 1st ever 4H club at the Warm Springs Care Farm. Let by a state 4H bunny expert, April LeBlanc, RN and parent volunteers, this club will meet twice monthly on Wednesday nights at the Care Farm.  For more information, contact linda@warmspringscarefarm.org or by phone at 208 515 4234. Open for ages 7 and up. Next meeting is via Zoom on Feb 2.

SELF DEFENSE FOR JR HIGH

Get your junior high student that confidence and self-esteem they need to defend against the bullies in junior high. Most of these kids are North Junior High kids, but the FREE class is open to ALL junior high kids. It is a great work out and will build kids' practical ability to defend themselves.  Teacher Thoren Rogers ((360)220-4932) is fantastic and can fill you in on where the group meets (off the farm- either at Adams, Roosevelt or another outdoor location).
