Five Acre Community Farm CSA are hiring an assistant grower to join the team. We are looking for someone with experience of market gardening (preferably at field scale) who is keen to grow organic vegetables for a CSA – and is happy to work with our team of growers and volunteers in achieving this.
Where and what?
Between Coventry and Rugby. We have been growing field scale organic veg and fruit for 12 years as an organic CSA on 8 acres. We don’t buy anything in, yet provide a share of the harvest all year round for a membership of 90 families, harvesting twice a week.
When and for how long?
3 days per week (approximately 7 hours a day) at the national living wage (£12.60 per hour) from March through October. The contract would include holiday pay and pension contributions.
What we offer in return:
- Team spirit and intermediate on-the-job training.
- The assistant grower would also receive a modest amount of freshly harvested produce for personal consumption on a weekly basis.
We’re a friendly bunch so if you like more information feel free to email info@fiveacrefarm.org.uk and we’d be happy to answer your questions.
From Becca, Ed and all the team at Five Acre Community Farm.
