Forestdale Farms Hiring

 

Farm Crew Team Member and Water/Compost Delivery Driver- Forestdale Farm (Flagstaff AZ)

Job Title: Farm Crew Team Member

Location: Forestdale Farm (Flagstaff, AZ. 5 miles from  downtown)

Terms: We are hiring two farm apprentices. $16 per hour to start for 600 hour farm apprenticeship.  Apprentices would likely have the opportunity to transition into full or part time work for next season as well.  20-40 hours per week

Pay: To start: $16/hour 

Benefits: Not benefit eligible

Apply by: ASAP

Start date: As soon as possible

About the Job:  Farm work would include all things related to growing organically (Bed prepping, planting, weeding, harvesting, preparing for markets, working markets, etc). The farm is a fast paced, demanding working environment--especially on harvest and market days. This role requires someone with physical strength, stamina, and focus/attention to detail.. We work together but many of the tasks are independent by nature. An ideal candidate will be able to learn quickly, accept and integrate instructions/feedback, be proactive, and have an attitude that supports teamwork and a positive work environment. The majority of the work is physical and in the outdoor elements in all weather conditions. Winter work would involve farm infrastructure projects and prep for next season.  Although the work can be demanding it is very rewarding for the right person!
