VOLUNTEER
Tuesday Crew
Our Tuesday Crew is a group of volunteers that gets together on Tuesday mornings–year-round–to build, maintain, and repair our displays, grounds and machinery. They start around 9am and wrap up around 3pm. Come join the crew…they need all the help they can get!
You can follow the adventures of the Tuesday Crew on our Facebook and Instagram pages.
Help With Events
Events are the best way to experience the Museum, and volunteering at the event enhances the experience. Try your hand at making beans or biscuits, teach kids to split shakes, sell admission at the gate or take tickets on the wagon…so many different opportunities! Volunteer for a shift and spend the rest of your time exploring all there is to see and do.
Join A Committee
MFLM has several committees that help with planning the work of the Museum including:
- Event
- Volunteer
- Garden
- Forestry
Your ideas and vision could help shape the Museum!
Lombard Crew
Join the crew that maintains and runs our steam- and gas-powered Lombard vehicles. Whether preparing the machines for events or readying them for winter, there is always a lot to do.
Workamp
Live on the grounds–in your own camper or in our Caretaker’s House–and experience the beauty of the Museum grounds 24/7. During our event season (May through October), workamping volunteers can experience the Museum in a way that few others get to. Help out by staffing events, running the Giftshop, maintaining the grounds and giving tours.
Check out Workamping at the Museum.
