Front Porch Farm
About the Flower Program:
Our 6‑acre flower operation churns out blooms from February to November, supplying 4 farmers markets, a weekly delivery route to the Bay Area, a handful of local florists and small groceries and feeding into our in‑house floral design studio. Growing over 300 varieties of flowers, it’s hard to pick favorites, but some main characters through the season include ranunculus, anemones, sweet peas and peonies in the spring, garden roses, lisianthus and dahlias in the summer and chrysanthemums in the fall. We love working hard, having fun and sending beauty out into the world.
About the Position: As a member of the flower crew you will join a team of experienced farmers to plant, care for and harvest six acres of cut flowers. Harvest is the operative word, as we spend four out of five mornings harvesting, fitting field work into the fifth day and a couple of our afternoons. At the height of the season the days are long and tasks can be strenuous, so we aim to build a team with a strong work ethic that supports each other in maintaining a positive & healthy working environment.
