FEATURED JOB OPENING: Farm Workers- Kula, HI

Enjoy farm work and lifestyle?

Here’s an opportunity for a couple (or individual) that share a passion for farming. Together you could support sustainability and feed the community. 

We are interviewing for our 17 acre organic tropical fruit farm located 2,000 ft up the west side of Haleakala in lower Kula, on the island of Maui. We grow a variety of exotic fruits including avocados, mangos, citrus, lychee, ulu, chocolate sapote, bananas, soursop, macadamia, Pili and Kukui nuts. 

In addition to the fruits, we have 15 hyline chickens who produce beautiful brown eggs. We just started a herd of 8 dairy goats. As well as our sweet German shepherd, Rita. All our animals are our loved pets as well as providing food for us. 

Looking for ethically responsible, respectful, self-reliant, couple/workers who enjoy farm life and work. Individuals must be able and enjoy hard work. Need to be healthy and fit. The farmwork is varied and includes weeding, irrigation, harvesting, pruning, mowing and tilling. Ideally workers have some farming experience in some sort of landscaping/agriculture, but if not, then the ability to work, willingness to learn and follow instructions have been enough to make it possible to train people on our various equipment: zero turn mower or ride-on mower, weed whackers, chainsaws, pruning shears, stake pounders, PVC/drip line work, fence repair, any construction or fix-it skills.

Additionally, I'd like to mention the housing. There's a full-size yurt with a detached full kitchen and a full bath, all equipped with furniture. The housing is very private. 

Pay dependent on skill level. This is not a caretaker situation. We're looking for hard workers.
