Volunteer

The Sustainable Student Farm strives to provide a hands-on experience in small-scale sustainable agriculture. Volunteers engage in all aspects of the production cycle and can come lend a hand. We accept volunteers for the second half of spring, and the full fall season. Please enter your time slot when entering your name.

At this time, we are only accepting volunteers with a University of Illinois netID. Thank you!

The Fall 2025 volunteer sign ups are live!
