Diggers' Mirth Collective Farm is a 15 acre collectively-owned and operated organic vegetable farm located in the Intervale in Burlington. We are a six person collective looking to hire an experienced person for our farm crew for the 2026 season. We care deeply about social justice, food access, the community where we live and work, and each other. We love what we do and are looking for a hardworking, industrious, fun person to round out the team.
Main tasks include hand and mechanical harvesting, wash/pack, tarping, handweeding, cultivating, irrigation, transplanting, and other general farm projects.
Farming is hard and sometimes gross work that takes a good deal of physical and emotional stamina. We strive for a healthy work/life balance and try to make it as joyful and sustainable as possible without sacrificing productivity and pace. We’re looking for someone who is comfortable working outside in all types of weather, has clear and direct communication skills, is adept at balancing speed and quality of work, and is reliable and punctual. We’re a playful bunch, and we’re looking for someone who fits well with us: someone who is able to balance being silly with working hard, is community-minded, and loves participating in a poorly-choreographed dance routine (not required). The ideal candidate is a quick learner with an eye for accuracy and efficiency, has a good sense of humor and at least two years of mid-sized production farm experience. Strong candidates with other relevant experience in fast paced and/or manual labor fields will be considered.
This is a four-day/week position, Monday-Thursday, 7:30-4:30 including a paid lunch break. We occasionally start earlier on high-heat days. Schedule and hours sometimes fluctuate in the early and late season. The season runs from early/mid May to mid-November. We’re looking for someone who can commit to the entire season.
Wage is $18-$20 an hour, based on experience. Additional benefits include one week paid vacation time, one week paid sick time, free produce, and an unparalleled work environment. Plus, you get to work with us, and we're so fun! If interested, please email your resume to diggersmirthcollectivefarm@
May 1 – October 11
Hourly position. Hours vary weekly.
Do you enjoy designing menus, creating meals with locally sourced ingredients and sharing your passion for food with others? Each week that we have resident guests at the farm we prepare and serve three meals a day for around 20 people. The cook interacts closely with the farm as well, and has nearly unlimited creative opportunities to bring food to our community, including using the outdoor pizza oven.
