ACRES Farm Technician

ACRES Farm at Warren Tech is looking for an experienced farmer to help manage our horticulture program’s urban agriculture research center. The ACRES Technician position is a unique, full-time and year round opportunity for someone who is interested in working in the intersection of on-farm education, field and greenhouse production, and community engagement. This position will focus on running the day-to-day operations of the farm including developing and implementing the crop plan, equipment maintenance, and helping support the overall vision of the Horticulture program.

The ACRES Technician will work collaboratively with the Horticulture instructor (that’s me) in creating the vision for the next chapter at ACRES Farm. I’d love to find someone who shares a passion for honoring the land we tend, the students that participate in our program, and our wider community.

This position offers competitive pay (~$21/hr. including benefits), and opportunity for continued training and career development.
