Open Positions

Farmers Market Sales Associate

The Farmers Market Sales Associate is the friendly face of the farm on market day. In this role, you’ll greet customers, share your enthusiasm for good food, and help shoppers choose from our fresh vegetables, flowers, herbs, meats, eggs, and other farm products. If you enjoy talking with people, being part of a lively market atmosphere, and helping customers head home with bags full of delicious food, this is a great fit.

Market days start with teamwork. You may help load the van at the farm and travel to the market, or meet the team there to set up the booth. Throughout the morning you’ll help create a beautiful, well-stocked display, answer questions about our products and farm, ring up sales, and keep things running smoothly as the market bustles. At the end of the day, the team packs up the booth and returns products and equipment to the farm.

This job is ideal for someone who likes staying active, enjoys being outdoors, and thrives in a fast-paced, friendly environment. A positive attitude, a willingness to jump in where needed, and a genuine enjoyment of helping people are key. Market days are busy, fun, and rewarding—and you’ll play an important role in connecting our farm with the community.

Leaf Element

At Elmwood Stock Farm, we take farming seriously. There are many moving parts to our business—it is a business, not just a farm—and it takes the right people to keep those parts operating smoothly.

Prior farm experience is not a prerequisite to employment in every position at Elmwood Stock Farm, but a willingness to learn and accept direction, to be forward thinking and communicative, and to work hard are necessary. All of our jobs call for attention to detail, plus a dedication to top-quality and safe food-production and organic-farming standards. Most positions also require a customer-service mindset and people skills. You probably already know that actual farm work is physically demanding but may be surprised to learn that even just going to farmers markets and moving boxes for deliveries requires physical work.

Applications accepted year-round. Current openings updated regularly.

Before we consider you for employment, we need to know that you are willing and able to:
• Work efficiently and attentively with an eye for detail, every workday, even on those days when you are not feeling all that speedy.
• Take care when handling each vegetable, bag and box to maintain Elmwood Stock Farm’s high quality standards. This is what keeps our customers coming back week after week and year after year.
• Work in rain and sun, heat and cold. The vegetables don’t stop growing when the weather is less than ideal, animals still need to be cared for, and our customers don’t stop buying.
• Give your best effort and be reliable.
• Enjoy your work and maintain a pleasant attitude.

Benefits of working at Elmwood Stock Farm in addition to wages include:

  • Paid Time Off including vacation and sick days.
  • Paid Holidays for full-time employees.
  • Health, Dental, and Vision Insurance for full-time employees.
  • Retirement with employer match for full-time employees.
