Root to Rise Farm is looking for a reliable, physically fit, and self-motivated team member who can help maintain our produce farm, gardens, and grounds.

What We're Looking For

You are someone who:

• Has experience operating tractors, mowers, and landscaping equipment
• Has gardening, landscaping, farming, or horticultural experience
• Is physically fit and comfortable performing outdoor work in various weather conditions
• Notices what needs to be done without being asked
• Can identify when crops need harvesting, watering, weeding, or care
• Takes ownership and pride in your work
• Enjoys problem-solving and finding practical solutions
• Is organized, dependable, and safety-conscious
• Works well independently while also being a team player
• Has a valid driver's license

Bonus Qualifications

• Experience with irrigation systems
• Knowledge of vegetable production and harvesting

The Right Person

We're looking for someone who walks around a property and naturally sees:

• The lawn edge that needs trimming
• The garden bed that needs weeding
• The irrigation issue before plants start suffering
• The vegetables that are ready for harvest
• The project that could be done better or more efficiently

If you're the type of person who takes initiative, enjoys variety, and loves working outdoors, we'd love to hear from you.
