Troy Farm Assistant Farm Manager Rooted

The Assistant Farm Manager works closely with the Farm Manager and Farm Director to accomplish our goals of producing quality food, stewarding the land with integrity, and upholding the farm as a community space. To that end, the Assistant Farm Manager will work closely with the Farm Manager on the day-to-day of the farm, which involves performing tasks and assisting with leading and training full-season farm crew employees and many volunteers through field and harvest tasks.

Our team will consist of 2-3 crew members and 35 regular and one-time volunteers who help with the daily tasks of the farm throughout the week during the CSA season.

The Assistant Farm Manager will also assist with making plans for the farm and crew, setting priorities for the day/week, and work with the Farm Director to keep the big picture of the farm in mind. We run a plant sale in the spring, so the beginning of the season involves a lot of greenhouse work and some caterpillar tunnel production.

Some administrative tasks will be part of this role as well, including things like writing a CSA newsletter, production and land management record keeping, attending farm team meetings, or drafting social media posts.
