Corporate Social Responsibility Opportunities
Travelling for a meeting or convention isn't just about gaining a new perspective from the people and places you meet, but also about giving back to new communities and making a greater impact.
THE SHARING FARM
The Sharing Farm grows food for The Richmond Food Bank and several community meal programs. On this 4-acre farm, your delegates can get their hands dirty building team spirit, while helping to grow healthy food for families in need. The farm welcomes groups of 10 to 60 people, and is open from May to October (opportunities may exist in April).
