Do you love DC history or wooden machinery?

Volunteer and help us tell Peirce Mill’s story!

We’re looking for people who’d like to learn more about Peirce Mill’s history and machinery, then give tours of the mill for park visitors. Volunteers may also assist with mill operations, clean up, and routine maintenance. No milling experience required!
