The abilities to lift 50 pounds, move efficiently, and remain positive in hot/cold/wet/dry/windy weather are necessary. Experience working on farms or another outdoor setting is strongly desired.

We have a transparent profit sharing system that includes peer-review components to equitably share a % of the farm's sales with crew.
The most successful applicants will have increased roles in management and planning with pay raises based on demonstrated ability. 
There is one position available for a candidate with tractor operator skills and 3+ years experience vegetable farming.

Past crew have gone on to be assistant farm managers, farm managers, small business owners, and farm business owners, or grow into integral management roles in our own awesome crew
