$15/hr | March–September | Thursday–Saturday

A job with purpose. Work outdoors. Make a real impact.

If you want a role where your work actually matters, Bittersweet Farms is looking for a Seasonal Gardens Worker to support our Gardens Program. You’ll grow produce, work with your hands, learn horticulture skills, and contribute to programs that support individuals with autism.

What You’ll Do

• Planting, watering, weeding, fertilizing, and harvesting crops
• Mixing soil and prepping beds
• Maintaining greenhouses and garden areas
• Hand‑harvesting fruits and vegetables
• Supporting daily garden operations across fields, hoop houses, and greenhouses

What We’re Looking For

• Someone who leads with empathy and respects others
• A team player who communicates clearly
• Patience, adaptability, and a willingness to learn
• Comfortable working outdoors in all weather
• Able to lift up to 50 lbs and handle active, physical tasks
• High School Diploma or GED
• Experience with gardening is a plus, but not required

Why You'll Love Working Here!

• Your work directly supports a mission that matters
