Each workday has different activities, depending on what needs to be accomplished at the farm that day. Some heavy lifting may be required as well as the use of gardening tools. Our employees are committed to your safety and will take every reasonable precaution to keep you safe.

While volunteering at the farm wear closed-toe shoes, a hat, long pants, and bring sunscreen and a refillable water bottle. Water bottles should only be filled from the water containers in the outdoor refrigerator.

The goal of this Car Wash is to raise funds for the Global Public Health and Medical Brigade organizations at UCF for our mission trip this May in Nicaragua. Global Public Health Brigades will be doing infrastructural work and work to prevent the health issues that plague the underserved community we will be working in by building eco-stoves, water stations and latrines allowing us to reduce the incidence of disease in the area. Global Medical Brigades will be focusing on treating the sick with the guidance of health professionals that work in the area.

The purpose of this fundraiser is to help increase the impact these volunteers will make as they participate in this program.
