Job description

Little Saint Farm in Healdsburg, California is seeking two full-time seasonal Crew Members to join our Vegetable Field Crew for a position running from approximately March 5th through October 2024. Exact start and end dates are negotiable.

Our new team members will be involved in most aspects of our farm, including, but not limited to: seeding and nursery work, field prep, transplanting, weeding, harvesting of vegetables, light construction and irrigation projects, and potential work at Farmer’s Markets.

Compensation is $20+ per hour DOE with access to an abundance of farm-fresh produce and flowers. There is the potential for this position to become a permanent, year-round position for an exceptionally good fit.

About Us:

Little Saint Farm is an ecologically-beneficial vegetable and cut flower farm in Healdsburg, CA. We are linked to a local restaurant, Little Saint, as one of their primary produce and flower suppliers. We also have a Farmstand outside the restaurant.

Founded in the fall of 2020, we have converted about three acres of what was previously grape vines into a diversity of annual vegetables, cut flowers, and perennial crops. We use minimal tillage (only occasionally power-harrowing compacted soil) and are committed to implementing ecological practices to improve our soil quality.

Qualifications:

Our ideal candidate is a fast-paced worker, enthusiastic and reliable, a good problem solver, an effective communicator, capable of working well alone or in a group, a fast learner, able to move from one task to another with ease, and able to work in the heat! They must be comfortable working and existing in a queer-friendly space.

Previous farm experience is strongly preferred, but not required.

You must be able to lift 50 pounds and be on your feet all day. We do our best to take care of our bodies, yet this is a physically demanding position. There will be days that consist mostly of monotonous physical tasks like spreading compost and clearing beds.

You must be eligible to work in the US. Ability for an in-person interview is strongly preferred. No local housing is offered.

People of any gender, race, sexual orientation or religion are encouraged to apply.

We look forward to hearing from you!
