Internship information

General Farm Description: Company description Love Grows is Ailsa and Brad, two wholehearted farmers from Bucks County, PA. It is our mission to grow a more peaceful, meaningful and productive existence for ourselves and those around us. Providing our community with nutritious, fresh and locally grown food with a connection to the land and food producers is an absolutely vital part of this process. Although we are not certified organic, our vegetables are grown with standards surpassing USDA "Organic". We believe that healthy land grows healthy food and healthy people. We are a pair of ecologically sensitive growers with respect for biology both in mind and practice. We do not spray any synthetic inputs in or around any of our growing fields. Compost, cover crops and rotational grazing feed our soil and our food. We are a 3.25 acre operation going into our 10th season, growing for 3 farmer’s markets. We focus on greens, roots and all things fresh for market while also producing a fair amount of longer-storing produce. We emphasize human power over fuel and petroleum-product use and we are especially keen to close our resource loops. This work is our calling and we aim to protect it and our souls from a heartsick capitalist system while making, like, a decent living.

Internship Details:

Full-time Vegetable Growers will work in the field just as the manager and owner-operators would. This position involves all of the fun aspects of working in a vegetable operation: sowing, planting, hand and hand-tool cultivation, harvest, wash/pack and slinging veggies at the markets. Ability to work in concert 1 or 2 other crew members is a plus but not required. The ability to do consistent, quality work at a brisk pace is essential and fundamental. Applicants should be content and able to do demanding and repetitive physical labor in heat, rain or cold, either alone or with other employees. The ideal candidates will have a zeal for hitting the targets of quality and speed and enjoy knocking down that to-do list.

Prerequisites:
– 1 full season’s experience on a vegetable production farm. Here, a season is defined as full-time work from April to November. A vegetable production farm is generally defined as a “for-profit” operation, where producing vegetables is the main source of funding/income for the operation. Applicants whose sole farming experience is on a non-profit or student farm will only be considered for this position if they have a strong manual labor background AND/OR a strong reference from someone who has done substantial production growing
– At least 6 weeks of preseason functional fitness training
– Review of small-scale organic vegetable production methods if unfamiliar

Pay:
– $18-$30/hr depending on experience
– Payment structure is open for discussion
– We encourage open dialogue about financial needs

Time commitment:
– Ranges from 30-40 hours per week
– 3 (of of 12) weekend markets per month. Commit to more for a $50 bonus each
– Flexible start/end dates between May and October

Perks:
– Weekly vegetable share ($440 value)
– End of season and 2026 returning bonuses
– 2 days vacation
