Visiting & Volunteering in 2022

Are you interested in visiting or volunteering at Starcross? We are slowly reopening our doors to special candidates - vaccinated folks preferred!


To see if we currently have room for you/your group, either contact us through the form on our website, or apply through WWOOF or Workaway.

Volunteer at Starcross

There are many ways that folks come to volunteer at Starcross.

Many families or individuals come for one-time, half or full-day volunteer activities,

while some people choose to stay with us for longer for Harvesting Retreats or 

as Farm Interns with WWOOF-USA or WorkAway.


We invite you to contact us directly about any questions you have about volunteer opportunities. 

WWOOF USA

We are a host with WWOOF-USA®. Worldwide Opportunities on Organic Farms, USA (WWOOF-USA®) is part of a worldwide effort to link visitors with organic farmers, promote an educational exchange, and build a global community conscious of ecological farming practices. 

Are you a WWOOFer? Connect with us!

WorkAway

We are also a host site with WorkAway. Their mission is "Building a sharing community of global travellers who genuinely want to see the world whilst contributing to the places they visit." We have many folks who find us through this program who are looking for volunteer opportunities connected to agriculture, and beyond.

Ecological Projects

Our volunteers help with a variety of ecological projects. This includes clearing hiking trails through the protected “Forever Wild” forest land. Planting, weeding, watering little Redwood seedlings for the new Redwood grove being established. Repairing fences and making fire breaks around the native grassland pastures while removing invasive weeds. Protecting and beautifying the perimeters of the property by mowing and weed whacking along public roads. Maintaining areas for birds and wildlife.

One-Time Volunteering

During certain seasons there are opportunities for one-day volunteering at Starcross. Bring your friends, family, schedule a work-retreat, or a plan a personal, peaceful getaway from the city! Starcross is located just 7 miles up from the coastal towns of Sea Ranch & Gualala, and just over an hour from the wine country region in Healdsburg.

Food Pantry

One-Time Volunteering

One-Time Volunteering

The secluded rural region of northwest Sonoma county that we call home is beautiful, but it is also woefully lacking social programs for those in need. The pantry runs every 1st and 3rd Friday of the month from 2-4 pm; local folks and farm volunteers organize and facilitate the Food Pantry.


*Read more about updates to our pantry pick-up here due to COVID-19.
