Colonials Serve: Shalom Farms (Central VA)

Location

Shalom Farms
2676 Venita Road
Midlothian, VA 23113

Event Description

George Washington's motto was "Deeds, not Words." To capture the spirit of this motto, the GW Central Virginia Alumni Network invites you to participate in their annual service event at Shalom Farms in Midlothian. Shalom Farms provides fresh, healthy food to members of the community who do not have access. In 2018, 400,000lbs of fresh produce were grown and distributed to those in need by Shalom Farms.

Join fellow Colonials to work on the farm and help harvest food for those who need it!  While every volunteer visit is different and farm tasks vary, it is likely we'll be helping with planting fall and winter crops, harvesting cabbage, peppers, and other produce, and/or cleaning and packing produce. Registration is free and includes lunch from Jersey Mikes following the service.
