Whether you want to work in the fields growing vegetables, answer phones in the office or assist with designing brochures we have endless amounts of work to do and we need your help! The first step to volunteering is to complete our Volunteer Application and Code of Conduct mail to Friends of Hilltop Hanover Farm, PO Box 54, Yorktown Heights, NY 10598 or drop to the Farm office at 1271 Hanover Street, Yorktown Heights. If you have questions call the farm at 962-2368 IBM Volunteers at the Farm Rebecca Reyes of the Global Technology Division of IBM coordinated a wonderful volunteer effort with regional IBM staff to spend a day helping us out. On September 26 approximately 20 volunteers from IBM offices around the area arrived at 8:45 a.m. and worked straight through until 4:30 p.m. The office dwellers exchanged their cubicles and computers to become farmers and forest rangers for a day, helping with weeding, harvesting and trail maintenance. Thanks to the IBM crew, we harvested over 300 pounds of produce for the local food pantry, a new Hilltop harvesting record! In addition, we since received many compliments on the trail improvements. Thank you to all the wonderful IBM staff who participated! We hope to see you back soon! Harvesting and having fun too! Loading produce into the back of the gator. Weeding the lettuce bed... Peppers, peppers and more peppers! High School Interns More Interns hard at work Volunteers starting seeds
