We are always looking for more Backyard Farmers. Whether you would like to volunteer or learn more about gardening or your local food system, drop us a line and we will get in touch with you shortly.
Start A Community Garden
Get the whole community growing! Backyard Farmers are looking for neighborhoods with active, engaged members who want to collaborate to produce their own food. We can help your community organize comprehensive workshops that teach participants how to establish and maintain a garden. We bring the tools and materials, you bring the gardeners!
Volunteer at Research Gardens
If you don't have a back yard or just want to meet people with similar interests, volunteer at one of our research gardens. These gardens are maintained to benefit local community organizations and portions of the produce are donated to those in need. This will be a valuable experience, learning and sharing with fellow Backyard Farmers.
Backyard Farmer Information Session
Have Backyard Farmer come to your business, school or community organization to facilitate a conversation about sustainable gardening and creating a local food system here in Richmond.
See what you can do first-hand on our
