Being a 1.75 acre market garden, all team members often help with many aspects of the farm.

Weekly Flow:

On Mondays and Thursdays we work together on harvesting, cleaning, and packaging vegetables for CSA, farmstand, and wholesale customers. Tuesdays is transplant day. Every Wednesday seedlings are started. In the past Fridays have been prunning and trellising day. The weekends are some of our busiest Farmstand sales days. In addition, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Fridays involves all aspects of garden maintenance including cultivating, weeding, bed prep, watering etc.

Schedule:

Full time help is desired, but we rarely ask team members to work more than 40 hrs per week. Part time possible.
Crew members often work Monday - Friday from 8am – 4 pm.

In the past, the CSA lead has worked a later shift (10-6) on Mondays.

In the past the farmstand lead has worked a full day on Saturdays, and/or 1/2 day on Sundays.

Willingness to work at least a few hours on the weekend is desireable.
