Job Description
Farm Manager
About This Opportunity
QBG Farm is a place where New Yorkers can participate and learn about urban farming through tours, workshops, internships, and volunteer opportunities. Fruit and vegetables are grown with a focus on soil health and care, without the use of synthetic fertilizers or pesticides. Crops harvested are distributed at our weekly farm stand and Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Program, as well as shared with interns, volunteers, and donated to local food relief programs.
The part-time temporary Farm Manager will support the QBG Farm- a one-acre farm that bridges sustainable agriculture, community, and education. The Farm invites the public to learn about the importance of urban agriculture and soil health. QBG is proud to have a closed-loop system where horticulture waste is processed into compost and used on the farm as organic fertilizer.
