Join Our Team!
We are currently accepting applications for the 2026 Season!
Our small but mighty farm is heading into its 22nd season, and we’re looking for some kindred spirits to join in the work, the dirt, the thought, the sweat and the joy of farming on Madison’s southern edge.
For all positions, we are looking for individuals who share our commitment to hard work, punctuality, respect for one another, and a drive to continually improve. Our mantras are “We are always moving forward” and “We are all in this together” and these drive our work philosophy and business. We value and reward previous relevant experience in our hiring, and also reward those who hit the ground running with energy and grit. In-season raises and end-of-year bonuses are often given to those who contribute directly to the farm’s success.

Worker Shares and Barters
Each year we have a group of CSA Worker Share members who work in the field each week in exchange for their CSA shares.
Interested? Contact Kristen at [email protected]
We also have quite a number of professional services that we barter CSA shares for. If you have a service to offer the farm in trade, we would love to chat with you! Contact Kristen to discuss.
Volunteer Work Days
During the summer field season (June through mid August), we invite volunteers to join in our morning activities every Thursday from 8am-12pm. You will receive farm vegetables for your morning of work, and get to experience life on the farm crew without making a full-season commitment. If this interests you, email Kristen ([email protected]) to be added to our volunteer list and receive sign-up opportunities once we get rolling.
