Company description
Boldly Grown Farm is a certified organic mixed vegetable farm located in the beautiful Skagit Valley of Washington State. We are passionate about feeding our community with high-quality, locally grown food while stewarding the land, fostering agricultural careers, building community, and strengthening our regional food system. Now going into our 10th season, we are a production farm growing approximately 35-45 acres of vegetables, grains, legumes, flowers and seed crops. We operate year-round, specializing in fall and winter vegetables. We sell to retailers and distributors throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond. We also operate a 320-member winter CSA program and a year-round farm stand. Our team consists of the owners and 10-14 coworkers depending on the time of year.
Job description
We’re looking for a few well-rounded farmers to join our Farm Crew! Our fall-winter season is focused on harvesting, washing, packing and distributing all the crops we’ve worked so hard to grow during the year. Our ideal candidate has some prior farming experience on a diverse vegetable farm—including basic equipment operation—or is a quick and eager learner! For experienced candidates, ongoing work and additional responsibilities or opportunities may be available.
Work will occur in both the field and pack shed. Fall and winter farm work can be challenging; a positive attitude and ability to work quickly and efficiently while maintaining attention to detail and quality is essential. Though we rely on equipment to reduce wear and tear on our bodies, you may still spend long hours standing, bending, squatting and kneeling in all weather conditions while carrying out repetitive tasks.
