Volunteers at Empower School at Valley Dream Farm will have the opportunity to get hands-on experience with developing a sustainable farm from the ground up. Our goal is to set up a farm that is fully sustainable with no waste—meeting our needs today without stripping future generations of the ability to use the land for their needs tomorrow. Valley Dream Farm is built upon the concept of regenerative agriculture and the aim of not just sustaining the land, water, and air—but improving it.
Empower School is partnering with national and international organizations to develop cutting-edge systems that are advancing the promise of regenerative agriculture. We invite volunteers who share our passion for sustainability and hope they can take what they learn at Valley Dream Farm back home to help build a global community conscious of regenerative farming practices.
