We seek strong, efficient people with experience and passion who aspire to grow beautiful food on a great team! All employees are integral members of our 7-10 person team at ATG. During the season you will be exposed to many aspects of direct market, intensive organic vegetable farming and deepen your knowledge of our farming methods, including bed flipping, season extension, cover cropping, reduced-tillage methods, composting, harvesting and packing, customer delivery, and marketing. Our goals as farm managers is to empower our crew members to feel confident and independent within well-established production systems.
We have a variety of “roles” on the farm including, but not limited, to raised bed lead, pack shed lead, greenhouse lead, production assistant, compost assistant, irrigation assistant and delivery driver. The roles allow us to match crew members strengths and interests with the needs of the farm, allowing for more flexibility in roles and responsibilities. Most crew members fill at least 2 and sometimes as many as 3 or 4 more minor roles. In 2026, we are hiring 2 general field crew members and a pack shed lead position.
We provide paid vacation (5 days for full-time employees, this increases in the 2nd year), paid personal/sick days, a meat stipend and unlimited produce. On-farm housing is available for crew who work full time and live on the farm and is considered in-kind compensation. Hourly wage rate based on experience.
With a winter CSA and farmers market, we offer year-round work and an opportunity to grow with us each year, moving from a crew member to the management team, over time.
