Volunteers make a 27-month commitment to the Farm of the Child. Volunteers arrive at the Farm in October, after completing two months of Spanish language training. This term of service will end in December two years and three months later. Upon arrival at the Farm, the volunteer team will evaluate current Farm needs and divide responsibilities according to the different gifts of each volunteer. Depending on the number of volunteers, current Farm needs and job preferences, some jobs will be modified and volunteers will share roles or assume more than one responsibility. Job assignments are made after arrival to the Farm. Application Deadlines All application and recommendation forms need to be postmarked by December 15 for volunteers starting the following October. All decisions are made by March 1 by the volunteer selection committee at the Farm.
