Treadlight Farm is a certified organic farm and nursery in Kerhonkson, NY. We sell cut-flowers and nursery plants from March through November from our greenhouses and fields.
Every year we hire seasonal help for harvesting, field, and nursery operations. These positions begin as early as March and continue through Thanksgiving. The work is hard and physical, but these are great starting positions for learning about organic farming, cut-flowers, horticulture, and native plants.
Part-Time (3 day minimum) and Full-Time positions possible. Some flexibility to start and end times may be possible.
Flower harvesters cut and bunch flower stems, transport them to our cooler, and process bunches for delivery. Field Crew does weeding, plant support, pruning, planting, irrigation, and more. We work 8 hours/day and in the summer often start as early as 6:00 AM. We take an unpaid lunch break.
This is a very physical, outdoor job and requires stamina, good physical fitness, and the ability to work outside in all weather conditions. Candidates should be able to comfortably lift 40 lbs frequently throughout the workday.
Other important qualifications are the ability to follow detailed written and verbal instructions, and to maintain a positive attitude. Candidates need their own reliable transportation to and from work, and to have proper footwear and clothing for being outside. We provide rain gear.
