Work-for-Shares

Work One Morning a Week in Exchange for a Full CSA Share 

 White Barn Farm seeks four Committed Individuals to help us with the harvest once a week

We need 2 people for Tuesdays and 2 people for Fridays

Hours are 8:30 am - 12:30 pm 

You are needed for the 22 weeks of the CSA harvest: June 2 - October 30

 

No experience necessary but a strong work ethic is required and you must be able to lift 50 lbs.  You must be able to work quickly and efficiently in order for us to get the harvest in on time.

The work will consist of harvesting and washing vegetables and preparing for the CSA distribution.  We love the rewarding nature of physical farm labor and the beauty of the gardens early in the morning.  We work no matter what the weather, though.  You must be prepared to work in the rain, the heat, and the cold - mostly this is a matter of the right gear - hat, sunglasses, raingear, rubber boots, layers, gloves.

You must be reliable and punctual.  We will be relying on your help so we need to know if you can't make it.  It is quite possible that you will be able to trade shifts with other work-for-shares if you will be gone for a week. 

In exchange for your help, you will receive a regular CSA share and probably the latest surplus veggie or seconds that you have an idea for.  The workout and the tan are a bonus!   

An interview and trial work day are required
