Hi there!
My name is Sam Rosenthal and I am a Permaculture designer and the new farm manager for a private family in upstate New York. We are looking for someone to work on the farm in addition to myself to carry out the vegetable growing needs for ~10-15 small families annually while I focus on holistic rotational grazing management, water systems design and agroforestry. You would have my support, design and plans, a planting calendar and more. A heated greenhouse and raised beds are in place and plans for additional no till gardens are under development.
The main responsibility is growing beautiful heirloom vegetables using appropriate blending of permaculture, regenerative ag, syntropic, biodynamic, or other methodologies. A focus on old world varieties produced for flavor and genetics conservation is crucial. Additionally, approximately 2 days per week and for 1 week per two months a considerable amount of time would be spent caring for animals, as well as additional time spent working on tree systems, composting, infrastructure developments, machine operation, food forest and wildlife habitat creation etc, as is typical to diverse regenerative farming operations. Comfortable housing, benefits, food for the property & an hourly rate commensurate with experience are all included.
Instruction and mentoring available to applicants of all skill and experience levels with a strong work ethic and desire to learn. Self guided projects, etc are a possibility for those with the experience, passion and dedication to carry them through.
Send a resume, relevant experiences and interests, etc to Sam at
