Company description Founded in 2020, Jacob’s Garden is a working farm set on the campus of the Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival. When Ted Shawn purchased the Jacob's Pillow Farm in 1931 and founded the dance festival, agriculture held center stage. He wanted his dancers and students in training to be outdoors, live away from the city, and eat a carefully considered, simple, and nutritious diet. It's no coincidence that this seed-to-stage approach laid the foundation for what would become the most enduring dance festival this country has ever seen. Jacob's Garden carries this legacy forward by raising bees and growing fruits, vegetables, and herbs in partnership with the communities around us.   Job description We are looking for seasonal part-time help for Summer 2024.  Tasks will primarily involve our lettuce greens operation and will include planting, weeding, watering harvesting, washing, and delivering baby lettuce mix and romaine salad greens.  Roughly 10-12 hours per week at $20/hour.  Hours can be flexible, but 3-4 hours on Saturday mornings is preferred.  Lunch is often provided by Jacob's Pillow.  Worker must be self-motivated as there will be times/days when they will be working solo.  An interest in dance is a plus.   Compensation this position is : hourly, $20/hr + Application instructions Please click here to sign in and view application details.
