All hours worked in excess of 48 hours in a work week will be paid at 1.5 times the regular rate of pay. Must Apply By: 07/27/2024 JOB DUTIES: Worker will manually plant, cultivate and harvest vegetables and fruits. Use hand tools such as shovels, trowels, hoes, tampers, pruning tools, shears, and knives. Duties may include tilling soil and applying fertilizers, transplanting, direct seeding, weeding, thinning, or pruning crops, applying pesticides, harvesting, cleaning, grading, sorting, packing and loading harvested products from the field.

JOB REQUIRMENTS: Five (5) months experience, able to lift 50 lbs. unassisted; able to perform duties that require extensive sitting, walking, repetitive movements, extensive pushing and pulling, and frequent stooping. No minimum education required. NOTE: Featherstone Farm engages in a unique form of direct-to-consumer produce distribution (850 -member community supported agriculture - CSA - Program), which requires of employees a knowledge and judgment level significantly above industry standards. This knowledge and judgment can only come from experience in the field and pack house. For example, employees will be required to pick muskmelons within a narrow range of ripeness standards (unlike conventional melons, which are picked and shipped green.) They will be required to pack highly perishable salad crops - no in the conventional 24 count leaf lettuce box - but in boxes of mixed produce where they can easily be crushed or otherwise damaged. They will spend large amounts of time grading heirloom tomatoes for ripeness, cosmetic and structural defects and suitability for delivery to very high-end customers. This skill alone can take weeks to develop, even for an employee who has months or even years of experience.
