Help us celebrate Montgomery County's rich farming heritage at one of the prettiest places in Montgomery Parks, the Agricultural History Farm Park in Derwood!
Visitors to the festival will get to experience what the crafts, games, food and activities were like on a farm from years ago, with help from park staff and volunteers like you! Volunteers will help their assigned station leader in showing our guests how to make candles, wash laundry, create tin art and many more fun things!
Training, a delicious lunch, t-shirt and breaks will be provided. This will be outside work, rain or shine (tents will be provided).
We are looking for outgoing and friendly people, and while all jobs are not physically demanding, they all do require the ability to work on uneven ground.
**THIS IS Student Service Learning APPROVED!**
**Please, only apply if you can be there for the whole 6.5 hour shift!**
Children that are 12 or 13 can only volunteer if a parent is also registered as a volunteer!
