A word from the farmer’s wife:

We are a conservative catholic family farm. While we are certainly not perfect, we do our very best to hold ourselves to a high standard. We are looking for a kind, respectful worker who will put as much care and consideration into our farm as we do and wants to put down roots and stay with us for at least 5+ years. You must be trustworthy, dependable, take direction well, and be able to go above and beyond even when no one is asking or looking because we do the same in our work. Since most of your work is done solo, communication is key on this farm, which is why we ask for daily check ins.



We enjoy having family around, and love to have kids help out on the farm as long as the situation is safe and work is being completed correctly. We understand that farmer’s hours can be long and grueling in certain seasons, and some seasons are not that way, but we ask that when the work needs to get done, that it gets done, and done well. Though this position is pretty solitary during the week, you will find that we will be there along side you when we are not working our other jobs, however we are always just a call away.
