Peach House Farm is a certified naturally grown cut flower farm “start-up” with 40 total acres (20 of which are plantable with previous crops of corn, tomatoes, soybeans and strawberries as recently as 2019). We are working to build an organic and fully sustainable farm that will also include fruits and vegetables and eventually a commercial kitchen and distillery. 

Located in Toccoa, Georgia, the family farm was originally established by David Franklin Thomason in 1909. The farmhouse was lovingly renovated in 2019 and is managed by descendants Caitlin and Ryan Greene, whose family has deep ties to the Toccoa and greater Currahee Mountain communities to this day. Peach House Farm’s 40 acres are maintained by farmer Stephen Dobek.
 

We are looking for an experienced floral designer who can also run operations and distribution for our farm with a seasonal variety of cut flowers, fruits and vegetables and eventually distilled products. We are also working to build a farm store, as well as presence at local markets and events, that this person would manage and stock with the help of our farm manager. 
 
The perfect candidate needs at least 2 years of experience working in floral design, managing distribution and operations, can commit to 40 hours per week and would desire to stay at least one year (and hopefully more!) We are looking for someone with entrepreneurial spirit and drive. Marketing strategy, newsletter writing and social media experience a plus. This is a big project; a real chance to create something new and exciting from the ground up. 

In addition:

• Strategize logistics and operations (wholesale, retail, markets, online, etc.) based on seasonal crops, and monitory inventory.
• Manage one's own time effectively 

• Motivate, develop, and direct future employees as they work, identifying the best people for the job.
• Computer skills (Word and Excel most important) Website design on wix.com a plus. 
• Knowledge of machinery and driving various equipment if needed (ATVs, Tractors, etc.)

 Examples of Daily Tasks

• Work with Farm manager to help direct crop production operations based on sales feedback and client demand.
