About This Job:A Farmscape Community Farmer Educator works on our Agrihood team to maintain urban and suburban farms within neighborhoods throughout California, and provide farm and nature related education and events for community residents. A Farmscape Community Farmer Educator is equally well-skilled in small-scale, mixed-crop farm operations using organic methods and leading vibrant, engaging activities, workshops, and events. You are someone who believes in the magic of farming and gardening and wants to share your love, passion, and knowledge with everyone around you.

About You:You’re as comfortable broadforking a recently harvested bed in winter as you are hosting a community potluck in spring. You would harvest green beans for 2 hours in the sun with folks from the neighborhood and do it with a smile. You were probably a camp counselor every summer in your teens. You bring the vibe and set the pace. Kids follow you around. Adults follow you around. Your coworkers love you so much they bring you coffee on cold mornings. The residents love you so much they bake you cookies. You want to teach a workshop on composting to 4 people and you want to make popcorn for 40. You’re just as willing to fill out spreadsheets with the latest harvest logs or drive across town to another farm as you are to harvest two tubs of hakurei turnips. You know what a hakurei turnip is. When people walk by the farm you say hi and ask them to participate. You believe in local food systems. You know urban farming isn’t bucolic but it’s still beautiful.

About Us:Farmscape is the largest urban farming company in California, with a commitment to creating food-focused, climate-resilient landscapes. Since 2008, we have designed, installed and maintained hundreds of customized gardens as beautiful as they are abundant.
