Farm Canvass Campaign – Orientation Meeting

Do you love Willowsford Farm?!
Do you want to see more Willowsford residents connect with our amazing Agrihood?

Support the Willowsford Farm canvass event starting this fall!

The Farm and Conservancy Teams are looking for a group of individuals who can commit their time and energy to sharing the Farm mission with the Willowsford community. Our goal is to walk the ENTIRE Willowsford community by Feb. 1, 2024.

If you’re someone who is passionate about our Agrihood and would like to share your enthusiasm with fellow neighbors we encourage you to register for the upcoming orientation session from 6-7 PM on Thursday, November 30. The orientation session will include a brief update about all things Willowsford Farm, an overview of how our canvassing efforts will be organized and the opportunity to register for the canvas in training opportunities taking place in each of the four Willowsford Villages.

The time commitment for this effort is 10-20 hours.

Interested? Heck Yeah! Your Next Steps Include:
1. Registering for the November 30 orientation session – offered online via zoom and in-person
2. Commit to attending one of four canvass-in-training sessions between Dec. 2-6
3. Commit to canvassing the community, on your own time and pace, for 10+ hours before February 1, 2024

Orientation Session – November 30, 6-7 PM:
Join us in person at the Boat House where you will receive a training from our farmers and meet other committed volunteers. If you attend in person, you’ll be treated to some mulled cider prepared by Willowsford Conservancy ED, Sophie Lambert, and light appetizers featuring Willowsford Farm produce. We understand this is a busy time of day, so we will also have a zoom link available (please RVSP and we will email the link).

Willowsford Village Canvass-in-Training Dates:
Volunteers will then join Farm team members for training sessions to canvass on one or more of the following dates:

December 2 – Greens Village from 1 – 3 p.m.
December 3 – Grant Village from 1 – 3 p.m.
December 4 – Grange Village from 4 – 6 p.m.
December 6 – Grove Village from 4 – 6 p.m.

A SignUpGenius link for canvass in training dates will be shared during the November 30 orientation session.

Not a Willowsford resident but you’re part of the Farm-ily? We would love to have you attend our orientation and canvass-in-training opportunities. The Farm is hoping to share the Farm mission with surrounding neighborhoods, and we’d wholeheartedly support you taking your energy back to your community.
