HeartWorking Volunteer Day
Saturday, April 26, 2025

It’s that time again! We need your hearts and your hands for our annual HeartWorking Volunteer Day at Rowdy Girl. Join us for a day of volunteer work, socializing with fellow animal advocates and awesome raffle items!

Volunteer work will include everything from working on an old barn to cleaning, gardening and sheep shearing. 

It’s always a blessing to share this annual volunteer day with you. Our sanctuary land used to be a working pig farm in the 1930’s. Your participation and contribution on Heart Working Volunteer Day is a blessing and we will consecrate your efforts with a prayer and ritual before we begin. Your hearts and hands are changing the land and the lives of all that call Rowdy Girl home.

We can’t wait to see all of the RGS family out here together.

Check this page often for more details as they unfold!

All volunteers will receive It’s Jerky Y’all from All Y’alls Foods, Beyond Meat, Celeste’s Best desserts, and other delicious vegan food.

All Y’alls Foods will be sponsoring lunch that will be brought and served by Happea Vegans.
