Are you missing from this photo?

Do you like history, meeting new people, learning new skills and feeling that you are really helping out? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then becoming a volunteer at the Colonial Pennsylvania Plantation may be right for you.

The Plantation is a nationally recognized living history museum right here in the Delaware Valley. On weekends from April to November, volunteer interpreters greet visitors and share what they have learned about colonial life with them.

If you ask our volunteers what they like best about the Plantation, you will get answers as varied as the people themselves. Many love the opportunity to meet and talk with visitors from around the world. Some simply enjoy turning back the calendar to a time quite different from our own. Others say that they come to the farm for its tranquility and to enjoy the animals.

Whether your interest is hearth cooking, farm animals, historic clothing and textile production, blacksmithing, gardening, or regional colonial history – we have a place for you. You need only the interest, we provide the rest!
