Bike Farm.org | A non-profit learning space run by volunteers who believe that bicycles are an ideal (and fun!) mode of transportation.

Mission Statement

Excerpted from the website:

Bike Farm is an all volunteer-run collective dedicated to every aspect of bicycle education, from safe commuting to repair. Our missions is to provide a space where people can learn about the bicycle and build community around promoting sustainable transportation. We strive to demystify the bicycle in order to impact the city in a healthy and positive way.

Current Volunteers and Positions

Mechanics : Christopher Lee, Benjamin Farbowitz, David Cox, Dave Stoops, Starmichael Bowman
Founders: Ariel Raymon and Becca Dillon
Media Coordinators: Abigail Scott
Web Designer: Heidi Olsen c/o 3 Hound Design
Community Outreach: Jennifer Collins
All Around Analyst: Momoko Saunders
Treasurer: Sara Sparkle

Membership

All rates are negotiable and no one will be denied reasonable service for lack of funds. Volunteer exchange can also be arranged for membership.

Membership entitles you to full use of shop space and a professional set of tools with the assistance of a mechanic DURING OPEN HOURS.

Drop-in rate: $5.00 per hour (no membership required)
Month Membership: $20.00
Year Membership: $60.00
6 Month Membership $35.00

Each core mechanic will have priveledges based on time and commitment. The non-profit will be a non-hierarchical consensus based project with weekly meetings, discussing the state of the Bike Farm and needed improvements.

The space will be purely run on funds and donations. We hope to get a few larger grants to help pay rent for the space in the beginning until its able to sustain itself on selling used parts. The Shop will be open at first 3 days a week in the evening hours and then extend to 4.
