TEEN VOLUNTEER PROGAM AT
SOULE HOMESTEAD EDUCATION CENTER
For the summer of 2025, Soule Homestead Education Center is excited to announce the beginning of our year round TEEN VOLUNTEER SQUAD*.
Teens have always been a special part of volunteering at Soule. We are looking for motivated teens that are able to devote hours to Soule all year long!
Is your teen…
- 13 to 18 years old?
- Have a desire and ability to work with children ages 3-10 and/or have a willingness to learn a bit about education center upkeep (or share what you know with others!) – for example, landscaping, property upkeep, animal care, organic gardening?
- Able to commit one day a week to Soule Homestead during the summer?
- Willing to assist with 2 weekend events that occur during the school year (Sheep Day, Concerts, Harvest Fair, or Luminaria)?
If so… then we would LOVE to have them apply for our Teen Volunteer Squad! Interested teens can download more information and an application today.
Teen volunteers are always welcome at the farm and we are always excited to teach them new skills in leadership and working with the community. Volunteers over the age of 13 can volunteer for any of the jobs listed above (with the exception of parking). Teen volunteers help us all around the farm in a number of capacities both during events and in preparation for them. We are looking for eager helpers who jump in and can lend a hand. We will never put your teen in a situation that makes them uncomfortable, but ask that they be flexible if the need for job assignment shifts based on need.
*All employees and leading volunteers have been Cori-ed and Sori-ed. We take your child’s safety seriously. (We will also welcome volunteers under age 12 during the school year with an adult.) If you’re looking for volunteer hours for graduation requirements please use the form above. You will then be sent a follow up link. Any people under the age of 18 who are being dropped off at the farm must fill out emergency contact forms so we have them on file. We always do our utmost to keep all of our visitor’s safe, this is truly in case of emergency’s only.
