The Friends of Loma Vista Farm are excited to announce a NEW program to help you save money and enjoy everything the Farm has to offer. Situated on five acres, Loma Vista Farm is home to a variety of animals, provides educational opportunities to over 18,000 students of all abilities, hosts a Master Gardener’s program for learners of all ages including a local 4-H program, provides hands-on experiences for Carrington Community College Veterinary Technicians, sponsors a Spring and Fall Festival, sells pumpkins and Christmas trees during the year, and offers students a chance to be a part of the Farm during "Summer Fun on the Farm."

Volunteer

This is your opportunity to join the many volunteers who work hard to support Loma Vista Farm. Loma Vista Farm is looking for dedicated and hard-working volunteers to help us with our fund-raising events. We're looking for additional members to join our "Events Committee" team. This committee of community members is responsible for coordinating fund-raising events throughout the year that raise the money needed to fund Loma Vista Farm.  If you have an interest, have the time and energy, or if you have experience in event planning, we welcome your involvement and support.
