How To Become A Celebrity Dairy Volunteer

become a celebrity dairy volunteer, Celebrity Dairy Farm, goatsWould you like to become a Celebrity Dairy volunteer? There are many ways you can volunteer to help us. We are a farm that stays busy doing work that we love.  It would be made even more special if we could share it with friends.

Possible volunteer tasks include:

  • Feeding and cuddling kids (baby goats) during kidding season (January to April)
  • Sharing information about our goats with Celebrity Dairy guests and visitors
  • Showing off our goats at Open Barn Events
  • Cleaning our barn and pasture
  • Repairing our fence
  • Providing other support at our special events
  • Gardening (especially for those who have been called “green thumbs”)

Of course, any amount of time you spend with us we greatly appreciate, however, we especially need volunteers who can  commit to at least two four-hour shifts per month. This gives you a chance to really learn how our farm works and for us to use our volunteer resources wisely. We ask that you first attend a brief tour and introduction session before making a commitment to do volunteer work with us.

Volunteers who can work with us regularly will be first in line to assist during kidding season and who would not want to cuddle and bottle feed adorable baby goats?! You will get to try our cheese, gelato, fudge, and soap and observe the process of making our goat milk products. Plus, we offer discounts on stays at the Inn at Celebrity Dairy and Special Events to our volunteers.

If you cannot make a long-term commitment, we can make arrangements for groups of five or more to take on larger projects. This is an opportunity to get your hands dirty on the farm and bond with your friends and co-workers!

Get a taste of volunteering with us at our First Sunday Open Workdays from 1 to 5 pm followed by a potluck supper and desserts from the Dairy. Anyone interested in volunteering may email us (theinn@celebritydairy.com) or call us (919-742-5176).

Please let us know the times and how often you are available to volunteer as well as if you have any physical restrictions. We appreciate your willingness to learn how you can help out The Inn at Celebrity Dairy and the Celebrity Dairy Farm.

East Branch Ginger Thai Third Sunday Dinner

Thai Third Sunday Dinner, Thailand flags

The Inn at Celebrity Dairy hosts Third Sunday Dinners throughout the year. Each event offers a festive new theme and a delicious new menu. On Sunday, September 16 (from 1:30 to 4:30 pm) will be the East Branch Ginger Thai Third Sunday Dinner at The Inn at Celebrity Dairy (144 Celebrity Dairy Way in Siler City, North Carolina).

Gloria, our official spokes goat, invites you to enjoy a special meal at Celebrity Dairy. Starting at 1:30 pm on Third Sundays, we share our passion for seasonal and local food with just 30 people in a sit-down three or four course meal. We always start with socializing over our award-winning goat cheese appetizers.

Guests are invited to bring their favorite wine or beer to accompany dinner. An after-dinner barn tour allows guests to meet our celebrity goats, and to let dinner settle before enjoying dessert and coffee. Our Celebrity Dairy Farm is the source for our delightful goat milk and delectable goat cheese.

This Thai Third Sunday Dinner is special.  Thai Cuisine is known for its intricacy, attention to detail, texture, color, taste, and the use of ingredients with medicinal benefits, as well as good flavor. Those preparing Thai Cuisine prefer using fresh herbs and spices rather than dried. Like most other Asian cuisines, rice is their staple grain.

Our East Branch Ginger Thai Third Sunday Dinner Menu:

  • Mango Spritzer
  • Rice Paper Wraps
  • Stuffed Eggs (Kai Kwan)
  • Mikimono Fruit & Vegetables
  • Coconut Soup
  • Apple Ginger Salad (Yam Ma Muang)
  • Pork & Crab Balls (Pratad Lom)
  • Chicken in Coconut milk (Tom Kha Kai)
  • Almond Curd with Lichee Nuts
  • Crisp Ginger Cookies
  • Hot Tea and Coffee

Dinners are normally $60/person, which includes tax & gratuity. Your advance registration and payment confirms your reservation. Prices for special menu dinners prepared by guest chefs may differ. Thai Third Sunday Dinner guests are also invited to spend the night in any of our eight available guest rooms (before and/or after the dinners).
