-PART-TIME: 24-32 hrs/week, 8 hrs/day. Flexibility in which days of the week you are scheduled. Start and end time shifts based on the season, 8-4:30 in spring and fall seasons and 7-3:30 in summer
-FULL-TIME: 40 hrs/week, 8 hrs/day. Monday-Friday. Start and end time shifts based on the season, 8-4:30 in spring and fall seasons and 7-3:30 in summer
-Starting wage is $18-$19 depending on experience
-This is a seasonal job with a flexible start in April-early May. It ends in mid-December. Must be able to commit to the full season. Opportunity for year-round work for qualified candidates is available and planned for on an individual basis.
-40 hours of paid sick leave after your first 30 days of employment

-Gear stipend of $150 for all employees
-Access to all veggies and flowers we grow on the farm
-Employees who return for additional seasons will receive pay raises and increased responsibility in specific areas of the farm based on their skills and interest.
The majority of the farm crew’s work will be harvesting, washing and packing produce. Greenhouse work, weeding, transplanting, crop care and maintenance make up the rest. Part-time employees will primarily work in harvest and wash/pack.
This job is highly physical and requires working outside in our hot summers and cold and wet winters, heavy lifting, repetitive tasks, standing, crouching and bending on a daily basis. Your success is dependent on your ability to move quickly and efficiently. You should be self-motivated, find the farm work and lifestyle rewarding, and have a desire to build mastery in farm skills. We strive to have a friendly, fun and collaborative workplace and value employee engagement and problem solving. Good communication skills are key when working with a large crew, and a positive attitude goes a long way towards having a great season. Prior experience in agriculture or other outdoor work is a bonus, but not a requirement.
While we hire seasonally for first year crew members, we are dedicated to growth opportunities for excellent employees and are looking for candidates who may be interested in permanent employment. These decisions are made in late fall.
