CARE Day Postponed to May 22nd!

Join us on May 22nd at Farming Falmouth from 9am - 1pm for CARE Day 2026!

CARE Day is an opportunity for volunteers to participate in a half day of service and education that benefits a local nonprofit tourism attraction by helping to repair or improve its infrastructure.

Activities Include:

Green house upkeep
New field prep work
Gardening
Trail maintenance

CARE Day is also a great opportunity for businesses to engage employees in a team building activity, and for civic organizations to activate their members.

Afterwards enjoy lunch as we meet the 2026 CARE micro-grant recipients to learn more about their missions. Volunteers will have the opportunity to make their own pizza in an outdoor oven using produce picked during the day!

2026 Micro-Grant Recipients:

Brewster Conservation Trust - Backus Overlook Water Station
Cape Cod Commercial Fishermen’s Alliance - Pier Host Learning Book Redesign
Cape Cod Toy Library - Eco-Friendly Birthday Party Initiative
Popponesset Water Stewardship Alliance - Taking the Sting out of Summer: Designing Jellyfish Education Programs for Families, Students, and Teachers on Cape Cod
