Community Work Day
Come join us in the fields to lose track of time, be outdoors, practice embodied work, and experience profound community with plants, soil, and humans! Our students, volunteers, and staff consistently say that their most memorable memories at DCF are the conversations they shared over a wheelbarrow of mulch or while tackling weeds in a bed of carrots together. Absolutely no farming experience is necessary, and there is no Duke affiliation required. We have tasks for most ages and abilities.

Insights from Alumna Helen S. Lydon
My mother talked about nursing and healthcare issues as long as I can remember. My aunt was one of the first nurse anesthetists at Duke Hospital, and I loved hearing her experiences and stories as well, not just at Duke but later in her career. I always was interested in the sciences and started leaning toward healthcare (particularly nursing) when in middle school. As a teen I volunteered at a large hospital in Buffalo, NY, during the summers and thought all aspects were fascinating. The patients, the doctors, the routine, and environment.
