Individual Volunteers
Red Wiggler relies on volunteers helping in the fields, being willing to expand their skills, getting to know the Growers and sharing their expertise. We are always looking for individuals who have the time and dedication to commit to Red Wiggler.
Please note: Volunteers are needed Monday - Friday, from 9-12 pm or 1-3 pm.
Volunteers under the age of 14 need to be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
