WHAT IS A WORK SHARE?
Farm with us, get veggies.
ur work-share members come to the farm and work alongside us for a weekly three hour shift in exchange for the farm’s vegetables. For a work share position you will need to be in excellent health and good physical condition. You do not need any experience to qualify, just a willingness to commit to working on the farm each week.
Work shares are available to those accepted to the program. Work share farm members will commit to a weekly Wednesday or Friday three hour shift on the farm from May through November in return for a $45 credit to their CSA account for vegetables. Short season work-shares from June-August and September-November are also available.
To apply for work share, please email chickadeecreekfarm@gmail.com with your availability and emergency contact info. Please include your phone number so we can have a conversation to answer any questions either of us might have about the positions.
