The Big Pick at the Guilford County Farm

  • Date: 09/24/2022 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM  
Join us for The Big Pick at the Guilford County Farm, 7315 Howerton Rd., Gibsonville. On two consecutive Saturdays (Sept. 24 and Oct. 1) from 9 a.m. to noon volunteers are needed to harvest the grapes so they can be donated to local food banks, shelters, and kitchens for people in need of some delicious fresh produce.

The vineyards are a proud feature of the Farm, grown specifically to give back to the Community. The 3-acre Vineyard has 18 rows of Red Muscadine vines ad they produce thousands of pounds of grapes each year.

Everyone is invited to attend this event, but minors must be accompanied by an adult. Registration is required prior to the event. Volunteers should bring a personal water bottle, sun protection, footwear for walking in open fields and wear face mask when in close contact with staff and fellow pickers. Gloves are also recommended.
