Volunteering
- Volunteers put in countless hours to collect, restore, preserve, and exhibit pioneer history. Volunteers are always welcome to help out in any way!
- On Mondays, volunteers refurbish, restore, and paint many pioneer artifacts. Time and talent is dedicated to restore many items such as hammer mills, egg incubators, and more.
- The “upstairs” volunteers works in the Horse section, on the Database, in the Library, the Financials, setting up new displays, and working on new artifacts coming in.
- Volunteers also work hard to raise money for many projects. The dedication of time and effort from volunteers is what keeps the BC Farm Museum going!
