At Crimson & Clover Farm we offer a collaborative work environment that encourages input from employees in making our farm more productive, efficient, and fun.

The positions run from May through Thanksgiving with the potential for part time winter work. This is an hourly paid position. We start all employees at $17/hour. All of our employees also get lots of vegetables from the farm. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide housing at this time. There are lots of rental opportunities in the area.
