Impact Statement
Our volunteers are deeply committed to the success of the organization. The communities and families that we serve value the Steckle experience and come back year after year – many of the children who attend our programs come back to complete their High School volunteer hours at the farm. With farm animals, vegetable and crop gardens, buildings of historical significance, and partnerships with other community groups, Steckle Heritage Farm is a dynamic place where something is always going on. If you are interested in becoming an active participant reach out to us, we’d love to meet you.

-Volunteering to help out at one or two of our special events that are held during the year, for example, Easter Egg Hunt and Wake Up Santa.
