Flower Field Crew

Longer Table Farm is hiring Flower Field Crew members in Santa Rosa, CA, for a full-time position (35-45 hrs/week) from May to October. Responsibilities include harvesting flowers, maintaining fields, and creating market bouquets. Candidates should have experience in flower farming and be able to work efficiently under pressure. The role requires physical stamina and flexibility in hours. Compensation starts at $20/hr+ DOE.
The Flower Field Crew will play a key role in growing the cut flower operation. Harvesting flowers for farmer’s markets and wholesale will be the most regular task throughout the season. Harvest speed and efficiency will be essential for success. The Flower Field Crew will also work on a variety of other physical tasks, such as maintaining flower fields (weeding, planting, etc.), making market bouquets and wreaths, washing and sanitizing harvest buckets. On occasion, the Flower Field Crew may be asked to assist the Vegetable Field Crew and/or work a shift at our farmer’s markets. The ideal candidate will have experience in both flower farming and floral design, though this is primarily a farming position. An individual who is passionate about growing flowers organically, can work fast while maintaining high quality standards, and has an eye for visual appeal will thrive in this position.

​
