Volunteer Days
Spring Volunteer Day - Grounds Clean-up
Saturday, April 23rd ~ 9:00am-4:00pm
Peters Valley needs a hand getting the grounds ready for the workshop season ahead! Come help us with some general yardwork tasks such as pruning trees, raking leaves, and picking up sticks throughout the campus.
Pre-registration is required so that we can coordinate projects. Limited on-campus lodging is free and available to those who come to help! A pizza lunch and refreshments will be provided for all volunteers.
FAQs
Is there a minimum age requirement to participate?
It will be a busy day that is very project orientated, so anyone over the age of 12 is welcome, however anyone under 18 must be accompanied by an adult volunteer.
Is there food available on campus?
We will provide lunch and refreshments. Our dining hall is still closed for the season, so if you are staying on campus there are fully equipped kitchens in the dorms and a few restaurants and deli's located within a few miles.
Do I need to bring anything with me?
Bring sunscreen/insect repellent as well as work gloves and eye protection if you have them. Please dress in layers in clothing that you don't mind getting dirty. Wear comfortable shoes. If you have any favorite yardwork tools bring them along!
If you have any questions about the event please contact our Director of Operations, Alison BondBaron at facilities@petersvalley.org or call 973-948-5200.
More dates will be added throughout the year, with various projects that we need help with so please check back. Please join our mailing list if you would like to be notified of future volunteer opportunities.
