Looking for a fun way to spend a few hours and help your community? Join us as a volunteer at the Sebastopol Community Apple Press!

What You'll Do

• Guide Patrons: Help patrons press apples safely and efficiently. Most need a little guidance, and your support makes the experience enjoyable for everyone!
• No Experience Needed: You don’t need to know how to use the press—we’ll show you everything you need to know. You’ll work alongside a Team Leader who ensures everyone understands their tasks and stays safe.
  

Volunteer Shifts

Four-hour Shifts

• Morning: Arrive at 8:30 am, help set up, and assist until 12:30 pm.
  
• Afternoon: Arrive at noon for a smooth hand-off, assist patrons until 3:00 pm, then help clean up and put away equipment.
  

What to Expect

• Active Participation: The role can be physical, but there’s plenty of light work to be done. You’ll help move buckets of juice and pomace, and assist with equipment as needed.
  
• Supportive Team: Volunteers encourage patrons to press their own apples, offering guidance and a helping hand when needed.
