We’re looking for the right person to help us GROW (all puns intended)! Help plant your vision of educational farming by managing our schoolyard farms and food lands to be places of production and learning; a farm oasis in the city. Our work starts with the soil, and our sites are the starting place for all of our programs. You’ll get a chance to help frame and create what educational farms should be on school grounds in the lower mainland.
In this role, you will be our Farm Manager, growing and sharing food with the community. You will lead our team towards our production and educational growing goals. Fresh Roots’ farms have been in production for five years, and we’re looking for you to help steward and grow our schoolyard farms into the future. If you love to share your farming knowledge, and love growing and sharing healthy food, then this is the place for you. Click here for job description and further information
