Pinehaven Farm | Full-Time, Seasonal with Year-Round Potential
Pay Rate: $24-$30 depending on experience
Pinehaven Farm is looking for a hardworking, dependable, and motivated individual to join our team in an Agriculture, Landscape & Grounds Management role. This is a hands-on position responsible for helping care for the farm’s crops, grounds, landscaping, and mowing operations throughout the growing season.
We are open to structuring this position in different ways based on the applicant's experience and interests. Ideally, we are looking for someone who can take on both the agricultural and grounds/landscape responsibilities. However, we are also willing to consider two separate positions for candidates who have strong experience in one area but not the other. These positions could potentially offer part-time or flexible hours depending on the candidate's availability and Pinehaven's needs.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys working outdoors, operating modern equipment, learning new skills, and taking pride in maintaining a large, beautiful property. You don't need to know everything on day one—we're looking for people who are eager to learn and grow with our team.
