Spend your shift helping care for our baby goats in the nursery and maternity area. This volunteer opportunity focuses on both daily care and socialization, which means plenty of brushing, grooming, and time spent with the kids, along with the cleaning and feeding tasks that keep the space healthy and comfortable.
What You’ll Be Doing
Volunteers help clean and refill water buckets, fill hay feeders, sweep the nursery, and clean pens first. After cleaning, a big part of this shift also involves helping socialize the babies through gentle handling and snuggling, which is honestly one of the best jobs on the farm.
In the evenings, you will help bring babies to the nursery and feed them dinner, fill hay and water buckets, tidy the nursery, and snuggle babies.
As the kids get older, they may spend part of the day out in the pasture. Once the nursery is cleaned, volunteers may also help refill water and spend time socializing the babies in the larger pasture area.
Important Info
Because we rely heavily on nursery volunteers and space is limited, please only sign up if you are sure you can attend. No-shows make it much harder for us to care for the animals well. You also will not be able to sign up for future shifts if you no show.
Please avoid wearing perfume or other strong fragrances.
