Join Our Efforts

POLK RURAL FOREVER is a networked coalition of people and organizations who want to support its rural community. Everyone can contribute. Your skills, energy, and willingness to engage is what will keep Polk Rural. We would love to hear from you!

Everyone can do something. We will need all kinds of skills and expertise! Click on the Join Our Efforts button below and fill out the Polk Rural Forever Volunteer form.

Share our Polk Rural Forever facebook page, posts and this website with your network, and encourage them to share. For organizations, we will be able to link up your shared relevant information and events to the wider POLK RURAL community. 

Check out the local rural activities here on the website and on our Polk Rural Forever facebook events page. Invite friends and share. Attend and have fun. Post your great rural life pictures. Patronize our local businesses, especially the ones who need their land to make a living like farms, vineyards, equestrian facilities, nature centers and the businesses that serve them.

Save time and gas and treat yourself to a staycation focusing on some of the amazing attractions right here. Click here on First Peak Visitor Center for great ideas.

We always hear “supply and demand”, but it is really “demand and supply”. You want more local food? Go to the markets, talk to the farmers, tell them we need them and what you want to buy more of. That is their life’s work so show them the love—and show them the money!
