Join Our Mission
Wellspring Harvest thrives on community support and engagement. Whether you’re passionate about sustainable agriculture, interested in cooperative business models, or simply looking for ways to support local initiatives, there are numerous ways to get involved with our mission. Your participation helps us continue to provide fresh, local produce and create economic opportunities for Springfield residents.
Become a Member
One of the most impactful ways to support Wellspring Harvest is by becoming a cooperative member. Our cooperative model ensures that employees have a stake in the business and participate in decision-making processes. New members join by a vote after a probationary period and purchase a share in the cooperative. This membership fosters a sense of ownership and community, ensuring that everyone involved benefits from our success.
Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteering with Wellspring Harvest is a great way to contribute your time and skills to a meaningful cause. We welcome volunteers to assist with a variety of tasks, including:
- Greenhouse Operations: Help with planting, harvesting, and maintaining our hydroponic systems.
- Community Outreach: Support our efforts to educate the community about sustainable agriculture and healthy eating.
- Events and Markets: Assist with our Go Fresh Mobile Market or at local events to promote our products and mission.
Educational Programs
We believe in the power of education to drive change. Wellspring Harvest offers educational programs and tours for schools, community groups, and individuals interested in learning about hydroponic farming and sustainable practices. By participating in our programs, you can gain hands-on experience and knowledge about urban agriculture.
Donate
Financial contributions are vital to our continued growth and impact. Donations help us expand our greenhouse operations, support our community outreach efforts, and provide job training for local residents. Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference in our ability to serve the community and promote sustainable agriculture.
Partner With Us
We are always looking for new partnerships with local businesses, institutions, and organizations that share our values and goals.
