Individual Volunteers or Small Groups

Due to the size of the exhibit and the ages of the participants, “Little Farm Hands” requires the help of many, many volunteers to help guide the children and their families through the various miniature barns. It is a simple exhibit, as it is geared to young children, with instructional signs to help the Farm Hands along. The job of the volunteer is to help the Farm Hands along and make sure they are doing each step.

We would like to invite you to volunteer for a shift at “Little Farm Hands.” Volunteer on your own, with your family or friend. Perhaps you would like to get a small group together! Volunteers may choose to sign-up as individuals or if they'd like to volunteer with their family or invite a couple of friends to volunteer with them, we need two to four volunteers per station. We welcome all volunteers! Please be sure to share this information with your friends, family, co-workers, etc.
