Volunteer
with CISA
Do you like to get your hands dirty? Donating your time and skills
is one important way to become a part of the community involved
in sustaining agriculture. Whether you have a lot of time or a
little, every gift of volunteer time is valuable and makes a difference.
CISA was started by a group of volunteers and we still depend
on community volunteers to help us accomplish our mission! Just
a few of the many ways you can spend your volunteer time…
- Spread
the word about CISA and attract new Community
Members by tabling at your local farmers’ market,
farm festival, food-related event, or grocery store.
- Participate
on an "Eat the View" committee to raise important
funds to support CISA’s work;
- Join
the Program Committee and help and makes decisions about the
direction of CISA’s programming and community outreach
activities;
- Assist
us with computer work, phone calling, filing and other office
tasks; or
- Help
out at a farm or food event;
Let us know what interests you, and how you’d like to
get involved by returning our
volunteer application to Jennifer.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Get
involved and get vocal.
Ask your favorite restaurant "What's local on the menu?",
join an agricultural commission
in your town, talk to your government officials and tell them
you care about the viability of farms and protecting and preserving
the quality of life in your community!
