Farm Employment
Would you like to get a job on a farm?
The best way to figure out if farming is right for you is by getting the practical experience of working on a farm. Our annual Farm Employment Directory lists a number of farms in Essex, Middlesex, Worcester, Hampden, Hampshire and Berkshire counties, and gives readers information about the farms and how to contact them for jobs.
Do you need farm labor? Are you looking for new ways to advertise open positions? Are you interested in mentoring beginning farmers in MA?
New Entry is distributes a directory of farms interested in employing farm labor. Likewise, we also want to identify farmers interested in mentoring beginning farmers. If your farm needs farm labor and you would like to be listed in the directory, please take a few minutes to complete our online survey. The survey includes 10 questions and should take no longer than 15 minutes to complete.
We update the directory periodically and we will post updated versions to our website. Print versions will be distributed by mail to interested organizations and partners, service providers, employment agencies, individuals, New Entry trainees, and distributed at various outreach events. Your response will be included in an online version of the directory that will be updated throughout the year.
You can access the survey online at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=4Az3acVrJhp_2fGHxEJBvulQ_3d_3d.
Feel free to direct any technical difficulties, questions, comments, or concerns to our Farm Employment Directory Coordinator, Maura Beaufait via email at Maura.Beaufait@tufts.edu or by phone at 845-270-2853. Thank you for your interest and your time!
