Farm Tours, Group Volunteering, and Speaker Requests

At Cultivate KC, we are committed to growing food, farms, and community to foster an equitable, sustainable, and healthy local food system. To support our outreach and public education efforts, we use a sliding scale fee structure tailored to the budget and type of organization requesting our services. This ensures access for diverse audiences while maintaining the sustainability of our work.

Volunteer activities at Juniper Gardens Training Farm are intentionally facilitated. Requests for group volunteers, tours, and speaking engagements requires a minimum of two weeks notice. Due to current staff capacity, we cannot accommodate tours or group volunteer events on weekends. Tours at Juniper Gardens Training Farm are unavailable during the off-season (November–March).
