Come work for us and learn about organic farming.  We have many years experience and are happy to share our knowledge with young and beginning farmers.  We raise certified organic vegetables for our CSA customers and for local natural foods coops.  Join our lively farm crew and work outside in a healthy setting.

ASSISTANT FARMER (FT or PT)

Bring your skills and we will craft a FT or PT position to match.  These are year-round positions for the right applicants.  Help manage our 35 acres of vegetable crops.  You will encounter a broad range of interesting machinery, crops, jobs, and responsibilities.  Expect to be involved with tillage, crop establishment, cultivation, spraying, irrigation, and many other essential tasks. 

• Candidates must be experienced in operating farm machinery.
• We strongly value experience with machinery maintenance & repair, as well as irrigation, carpentry, and/or pesticide application (Note; we only use organically-approved materials).  Applicants should have some of these skills but it’s not required for an individual to have all of them. A willingness to learn is essential.
• Candidates must be physically fit.
• The FT position is 40+ hours/week during the growing season, but we will consider PT candidates who are available 20+ hours per week.  Work is generally scheduled Monday – Friday but tasks can be scheduled for evenings and weekends if that is when you are available.
• Work begins in April.  Our growing season runs April – November.  Part-time work will be available during December – March.
• We do not offer on-farm housing but rentals are available in nearby towns. We value the Assistant Farmer living nearby, and will give preference to candidates who choose to live within 15 miles of our farm.
• Compensation: $19 – $25 per hour, based on experience, plus a probable year-end bonus. We offer a gas subsidy for your travel to the farm, and you get to take home lots of organic produce.
