Hello market farmers,
I am a lurker on this list, with occasional input, but not enough time to
really interact. I am hoping you can help spread the word about this
position opening. While it's not a "market farm", it is a 100-share CSA
with 3 acres of organic vegetables and 15 other farms contributing products
to the CSA. The position will require alot of experience, particularly with
the bigger jobs of plowing & logging with horses, managing cattle and
maintaining the farm (there's alot going on here!) Thanks for your help!
