Farm Hand Wanted in Healdsburg


Seeking an agriculturally experienced worker to help with fieldwork such as planting, weeding, harvesting, processing produce and potentially selling at market.  We are a small family farm running a CSA program and selling at two local farmers markets.  We grow our produce in a "beyond organic" manner, with no synthetic pesticides or herbicides, and we source all inputs as locally as possible.  

Desired qualifications:  We're looking for someone who has worked on a farm before and knows that farmwork is manual labor -- it can be hot, tiring, and sometimes repetitive, but it's also productive and personally satisfying.  You should be able to work both alone and as part of a team, and it helps if you appreciate the beautiful outdoors. Tractor experience not necessary.  Passion for local food production a plus!

Pay starts at $9/hour for 15-20 hours per week, with room to grow both in salary and time.  Perks include farm-fresh food for you and your family. 

If you are interested in the position, please email a resume or summary of experience to farmer@foggyriverfarm.org and be sure to include at least one reference
