Additional Volunteer Opportunities at The Rocks
Our volunteers range from folks who spend a few hours each year loading Christmas trees onto cars to people who donate many hours leading school programs or acting as docents during our popular Maple Tours and Christmastime wagon rides.
Other volunteer jobs include cutting, splitting and stacking firewood; working in our shop; registering visitors for our regular programs; planting Christmas trees; pruning apple trees; and various grounds work.
