THE VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITY

Alemany Farm is the largest agricultural space in San Francisco – a 3.5-acre organic farm that produces over 20,000 pounds of produce each year, which they distribute to the community for FREE! Friends of Alemany Farm manages the land and operates educational programs to help the community understand where their food comes from.

Alemany Farm depends entirely on volunteers to operate. Your time will keep the farm running. Produce grown on the farm benefits community members in need as well as volunteers who take produce home after their volunteer shifts.
