The Farm at Moose Hill is a Mass Audubon Wildlife Sanctuary that provides organic produce to more than 250 families through our CSA program in addition to local hunger relief organizations, an on-site farm stand, and farmer’s markets. 

The farm is 17 acres, certified organic, and located in Sharon, Massachusetts – about 25 miles from both Boston and Providence. We work with a neighboring farm to plant our crops and cultivate the fields. Moose Hill is the oldest Mass Audubon Sanctuary and is committed to farming with the health of our adjacent woods, meadows, ponds, and vernal pools in mind. The health and happiness of our farmers is very important, too.

• Plant, weed, irrigate, harvest, wash, pack, and distribute organically grown vegetables.
• Ensure beautiful, high quality produce.
• Assist with CSA pick-ups on a rotating schedule with other farmers. This includes, but is not limited to, creating a friendly, welcoming atmosphere for everyone, providing direction for work share volunteers, maintaining a clean space, and using a point of sale system for farm stand purchases.     

Shared, rotating responsibilities, may include:

• Assist with CSA setup.
• Provide training and quality guidelines to work share members.
• Lead the wash area. 
• Set up an on-site farm stand.  
• Maintain electric fences.
• Keep records and track donations.
• Deliver produce to our sister sanctuary, Boston Nature Center, if needed.
• General cleaning of the barn, tools, wash area, etc.
