Below are a list of folks that have rolled up their sleeves and dug in to help us improve our educational programs and farm site this past year. We literally would not be able to serve a single child if it were not for all the volunteers who care so deeply for our mission to serve children. A ‘thank you’ seems inadequate but with limited time and resources all we can offer is a heartfelt thank you to each of you from the folks at Old McDonald’s Farm, Inc.
